Lake Tuapo

On the way back from Mt. Ruapeho we dropped by Lake Tuapo. It has this nifty waterfall/rapids that leads to the lake. Fortunately, the place is well provided for - it has lovely bathrooms for $2/visit... This country is unbelievable sometimes.

Fortunately, the tree was free...


It also has a field of thermal mud and steam vents called "Craters of the Moon", we went there, but they wanted like $8/person for a 20 min hike, so we left. We went to the glass honeybee hive. But the hive was closed. So we went to the geothermal powerstation...

Two bucks to pee? Ridiculous. Good thing for all those free trees, just sitting and waiting to be used. The water is soo blue, really pretty. Although I wouldn't want to go tubing on that river. Have a happy birthday!!!!
