With determination to defeat jet lag an early start saw us waiting for a bus first thing this morning. I know New Zealand is turning into a film maker’s paradise but they were actually filming a bizarre sci-fi program at the bus stop! We spent the morning going round Kelly Tarlton’s Antarctic Experience learning about the race to the South Pole and also some interesting facts about squid and penguins. At lunchtime we picked up our hire car from the most incompetent lady (“everyone else is on lunch but I think this is what we need to do…”) and after the usual driving in different country near crash set off to introduce ourselves to New Zealand roads. By mid afternoon we were in Waitomo and managed to catch a couple of natural sights, a natural formed bridge, some caves and a larger waterfall, before finding another attraction, the local Speight’s :-P
