Day 5/6: Taupo

Taupo

I decided not to do any day excursions today. So I pretty much chilled in Taupo, a small town on the lake. Not a whole heck of a lot to do. I think the highlight of the day was watching the peeps bungee jump a 44 m fall, which made my heart race like a maniac just watching!!!! Thank goodness I was the photographer and was not partaking in such escapades.... LOL

We went to see the famous Huka Falls today, which was amazing! Took lots of pics--as the Falls were so picturesque.

However, I have decided that I may just have to try SKYDIVING in the south Island.
I also realized today that working out makes me feel so much better if I'm having a shitty day. I went for a run along the lake today with Michelle, a girl from West Aussie. The waterfront here reminds me a lot like our Lakeshore downtown. They have black swans here!

Tonight we had a boat cruise and dinner. Most of us went and the theme was "florescent." We all went to "Dollar store" shops to pick up some things. Some went all out, while others like myself kept it tame. The Happy Hour prices were great, which most of us took full advantage of.
