We had a great time on New Year's Eve, drank a bottle of good New Zealand wine with a delicious dinner, ate waaay too many mini donuts hot from the vendor at the carnival, got down at the concert by the lake, had a few beers at the local watering holes, and watched the fireworks at midnight. Welcome to 2008!

Rotorua, NZ
Happy New Year to everyone! We spent New Year's Eve and New Year's Day in Rotorua-- the most geologically active place on the North Island of New Zealand. It's a beautiful spot with lots of Maori culture and interesting geology and history. You can see from the picture that the lake is steaming hot. What you can't see is the smell of sulfur that fills the air all around Rotorua- quite pleasant.
