FOSTER (& on behalf of FERRIS)
Our first planned activity for today was Bungy Jumping for Lisa, Jackson and Izaac.
It is the most beautiful part of the Waikato River...the water is crystal clear and such an amazing colour. The jump was 48 metres high and Lisa was the first guinea pig...
Lisa....
then Jack....
then Zib...
We then drove to Huka Falls. 200,000 litres of water go over these falls per second. They can however control the flow up at the control bridge further into town. The water comes from the mountains above Taupo (melted snow etc) into the lake and down the falls.
When water is so scarce at home, it seems so wasteful watching all this water go, but so beautiful.
Home for lunch and then a trip to the bee farm where we met some very chipper bees...
