Day number 3 in Rotorua and we got in touch with a Southafrican couple, members of Forest and Bird who offered us a place to stay. There were plenty of people who had offered a place to stay but because of the hellish ride in and the bad luck with my rear tire, we checked in in the first campsite we found. The second day, because of the rain we decided to stay at the campsite again but today we could not refuse the offer and moved up to a place called Paradise Valley.
Our hosts, Pier and Volna made us feel welcome from the first moment, Pier even arranged for a trolley so he could take us all the way to their place. By that time my bicycle was ready and once we were installed in their beautiful home, Volna took us to Okere Falls, just outside Rotorua. We were going to join the protest that was organised to avoid the damming of the Kaituna river. On the projects-page we will list more information on this issue.
We had a lovely dinner with Pier, Volna and their son Jorg.
