Okere Falls and The Blue Lake.....

We packed up the kayak and some lunch and headed down to Rotorua for the day. First stop was Okere Falls:




The caves:




This is my kind of graffiti:



The Trout Pools and a show-off shag:




The Power Station:




Then we carried on round to The Blue Lake. The plan was that A12, H9 and I would kayak across, while The Lad, L6 and L10 walked round:






We met in the middle and had our lunch and a refreshing swim:


And then I walked back by myself, while the other five weighed the kayak down, mixing it up between swimming alongside and paddling in and sitting on!:
