PICTURE: Spa thermal park, in Taupo
Well we left Wellington and made our way up the North island to a place called Taupo. Taupo is the begginning of the volcanic ranges in NZ. We settled in to our hostel which is super nice and clean. We even got our own bathroom for only $62 a night. We contemplated doing a hike called the Tongariro crossing which is 18km up and down Mt Tongariro. Because the volcanic range is quite high they have severe weather changes in an instant so they want you to be prepared for anything. We decided that we did not have the right equiptment and will maybe do it next time we make our way to NZ. Instead we had a quieter morning and then took a hike to the natural thermal pools. Taupo is really pretty, it surrounds Lake Taupo and the sun has been shining since we arrived. Today we are off to Rotorua to the geisers and thermal pools. Shall be fun! All is well hope things are good back home. Talk to you all soon, HAPPY ST PATRICKS DAY!!
Love Jen and Glenn XOXO

Nice to read about what you're doing. Taupo sounds like an awesome place. Happy birthday Glenn. 1st day of Spring! A welcome day in Calgary. Easter kind of snuck up on us this year. We're having turkey on Sunday. Gregg is cramming for his FINAL. Should be a full fledged journeyman after this weekend. Went to the wave pool with the grandchildren last weekend. Of course Rick had them way out in BIG waves and Marj was screaming "Come back here", "stop that". Reminded me of all those crazy things you used to do and I was always screaming "I'm calling your mother". Gosh, only another few weeks till you're home. That year went fast didn't it? Love....
