neon water?

hey everyone... now where did i leave off... oh ya me going to rotorua (that's how it's spelt... haha!). ya, so i came on the nakedbus... and there were only a handfull of us on the bus, which was quite funny itself. so, as i was getting off the busdriver said, rotorua always smells like rotten eggs b/c of the sulphur geysers that are known for this town. it was quite funny, 'cause i'm here for 3 days and all i can smell is rotten eggs... kinda like my mb home! (j/k)

alright, so i thought rather than just sitting around and doing nothing... i'll go zorbing! it was awesome it's basically like a person in a hampster cage... except w/ a little more padding on the zorb than just plastic. alright, so i went w/ a guy and a girl (girl from toronto, dana, really cool!... and 18 too!). anyways, we put water in the zorb, and basically we were pushed off of this hill to tumble down in this thick plastic contraption. it was so fun! and so weird... totally kiwi like. (people call newzealanders kiwis... so, i'm joining the bandwagon) anwyays, that was my first day.

oh, and i'm staying at this place called "Funky Green Voyager" it's the best hostel that i've ever been at. i love it. there's so much character and there's also so much life to the place. if you have time look it up... i'm not sure how much info you'll get but it's my fav. place ever! i actually would love to own a place like that... seriously!

what else? i went on a long walk yesturday. it was nice, nothing really compared to greatness, but it was nice. everything out here is pretty expensive, so it's rather annoying... oh well! i also went to see a geyser today. i thought that if i'm here i may as well see a geyser. so, i went. it was cool again. but, nothing oh wow! but, some of the places have really interesting colors of water because of this sulphur... i mean like neon water! and, there were mud pools that were boiling. all the water just seems to boil. it kinda reminds me of when frodo falls head first into that swamp... that's what it reminds me of. kinda creepy but rather unique.

so, i'm off tomorrow afternoon... going straight to christchurch, and straight to the YWAM base as of now. i'm pretty excited. talk to you guys later!
