In the morning me and Jen had a little lie on while the boys went to do their white water rafting and buy some warm clothes. They have realised it's a bit too cold to just wear shorts and a t-shirt. They came back with a hoodie and slippers each. Anyway, while they were racing down rivers and waterfalls Jen and I went to Redwoods forest and did a walk there. Then we drove 5 minutes down then road to Blue Lake and walked the track around the lake. It was a really nice walk and took us about 1hr30. The sun finally came out and we had some lunch overlooking the lake. We watched a couple who had just run round the lake dive into the water to cool off. After our walk we made several cups of tea in the forest and met the boys. We then rang Jucy and stopped off to fix their gas canister. They were having trouble with it and it wasn't lighting properly.
We drove to Taupo in the afternoon. I'd told the boys where we were going in case they got lost, but they were following us anyway. We pulled up to Rainbow Lodge and before we knew it they whizzed past us and turned down another street. We thought they were going to the supermarket we'd just passed to buy beer. After some time, they appeared on the street- they thought we were camping somewhere else and thought they'd be smart and whizz off! Boys being boys...
Jen and I made a veg curry that evening and we all played cards for a bit and went to bed.
