New Years Eve in Taupo, NZ Tues. - December 31, 2013


TUESDAY – DECEMBER 31, 2013

BOTTOM LINE:
New Years Eve in Taupo, New Zealand

BACK STORY:
·      We’re in Taupo for the day.  Slept in.  No schedule.
·      Warm and sunny day after days of drizzle and rain.
·      Walked around town.  Grabbed some lunch. 
·      Looked for somewhere to get a fishing license for Bruce. 
·      Confirmed our accommodations for the Abel Tasmin Park.
·      Did laundry.
·      Bruce went out on a chartered boat fishing. He caught two large lake trout (4 lbs. each), which we cooked and offered for others in the hostel to share.  Much to our surprise NO ONE wanted free, fresh fish.  Without any means to keep it cold, we left it behind in the refrigerator.
·      Went to see the fireworks over Lake Taupo at 9:45 after sunset. A little Maori girl kept coming up to me saying, “cheese.” So cute!
