A quick update, before we head out for the day. Unfortunately, we’re out of upload bandwidth, so no pictures until the next campground. We had some amazing diving on Thursday at the Poor Knights (Hil, you have GOT to get back here and do that), and drove south on Friday, with a few stops along the way (we actually made it into Sheepworld and caught the sheep show).

We’re in Hamilton right now, which is half way in between our next two activities; “blackwater rafting” through the glow-worm caves, and exploring the volcanic landscape of Rotorua, with hot springs and sulfur pools. We’re waiting to see what the weather does before we decide.

We stopped at an auto shop yesterday morning and got our van problems solved; the internal battery was dry and barely holding a charge, so easily fixed with a new battery. Now we don’t have to worry about whether the fridge will stop running and our food will warm up.

So off to breakfast and to start the day!
