Tim loves these "Caution" signs that we have seen all over New Zealand. The exclamation point, uh, makes a point!
We saw this vendor at a local farmers market in Rotorua. It made us laugh, but we didn't try them to see if they were authentic.
In Auckland, on our way back through from KeriKeri to Rotorua, we went up to the top of the Sky Tower, the highest building in the Southern Hemisphere. It was a clear evening and we had a nice 360 degree view of the city and harbor.
We ate dinner at this fish and chips restaurant on the water. Great fish and chips because they go out and catch the fish fresh every day. Yum! And great views too.
We visited a forest of Kauri trees, which used to cover most of the northern part of New Zealand. Now there are a few remaining groupings. In the early 1920s the British came and logged most of them to help build ships. They are huge trees, which is hard to capture in a photo.
We had the best blueberry pancakes at our bed and breakfast in Keri Keri. The picture of Wendy, our hostess, is not very flattering of her, but her pancakes were the best.
This is the view of Lake Rotorua from our hotel. There is a race horse track right next to the hotel, that is in the foreground. There aren't any horse races until Friday, so I guess we won't get to see that.
