Rotorua

Otherwise known as...."Rotten"rua
This place was just crawling with thermal hot spots right and left. Just imagine steam seeping out of the grass and sewage drains. This steam has a nice rotten egg smell, which explains the nickname!


All these areas are fenced off with signs: danger thermal areas
Some full of boiling mud! It was quite funny to see!

Steam out of a sewage drain along the street! 

Minus the scent, this town had a lot to offer. First off being the Luge! Riding the gondolas up the mountain made me feel as if I was back in Utah!
I had a few close encounters to wiping out, but somehow managed to stay on my cart :)


The luge was not enough adventure for me, so I added in some of my own adventure on the lift back up!
