Steamy things!

Exciting explorations of volcanic treats - especially White Island - NZ's most active. Situated 30 miles off the east coast, the trip itself was a delight with dolphins to entertain - though the return trip was a test for the hand grips. We have walked the Tongariro Crossing - reputed to be NZ best one day walk. The amazing scenary did not disappoint. We are heading south towards Wellington and planning our movements in South Island when we will write next.
