Thanks Yisehag. It's nice to know you are watching and enjoying :)

How about swim in a natural hot water spa folks?

These shots are of a section of the Waikato River where a hot water, geothermal stream flows in creating a very warm bathing sensation

Ok ... you GOTTA be bored with all the river shots by now I'd think, so on our home this day we detoured to the Pureora Forest which is recognised as some of the best rainforest in the country. We only had time for a quick walk down a short trail.
