7:30am departed hot water beach. Stopped off in Paeroa at Karangahake gold mine. Rode in a cart like in Waluigi’s gold mine (Mario kart) and saw glow worms. Super crazy cool.
Got to the hostel in Waitomo and had some lunch before being picked up for Black Water Rafting. Major effort getting into the outfit. Wetsuit dungarees, fleece, wetsuit jacket, wetsuit socks, boots, helmet. Good to go.
Drove to the caves and picked our rubber ring of choice. Practiced jumping off waterfalls in the river. Caves here we come. One bit the ceiling was so low you had to sit in the tube and lean back and push yourself along off the ceiling to get through. G would freak.
So cool when we turned our head torches off and floated along with glow worms all over the cave above us. Felt like I was on a ride in Disney.
Had just over an hour in the caves then drove back and had the task of getting the cold wet outfits off. Nearly wet myself.
Soup and bagels to warm up 👌🏼
Went to the pub in the eve for some group bonding.
