My trip to the Bay of Plenty and Rotorua

Hi,

Today I’m doing an article about my trip to the Bay of plenty. Enjoy it!

My trip to the bay of plenty                                     Saturday 11^th July 2015

Just today and yesterday my dad, grandma, and a foreign visitor from the United States that could speak Chinese very well all set of for 2 locations: Rotorua and Tauranga.  I had all been there before but my grandma said, “There might be some places you didn’t visit”. So we decided to visit again and go at about 8:30 in the morning. First we drove from Auckland to Tauranga. There wasn’t much to see, only sheep, cows, grass and sheds. But when we finally arrived at Tauranga, it got a whole lot more interesting.

First of all, when we drove in there was a harbour and port so that made us think that there was going to be a lot of people in Tauranga. But, as we went further there weren’t as much people as we thought. Instead of cars on the road, it seemed like they were selling them with loads on the grass!

 We ventured a bit more until we gave up and drove to a more populated part of the city where there was a volcano / mountain. The name of it was Mount Maunganui, an extinct volcanic cone.  We could climb it and take photos so we did. The bottom was all soft, damp rocks and soil, which there was sheep on. But as we went higher, there were no sheep or animals. When we were nearly at the top, my grandma said she couldn’t keep going, so my grandma and me stayed behind on a seat while my dad and the foreign visitor kept going.

After we were down from the mountain, we drove to a resort; a one called “Pacific Palms“ and checked in. After that was done, we put all our stuff in the rooms and went out for dinner.

Next, after we had dinner, we went back to the resort and went to sleep. We decided that the next day we were going to Rotorua to see some museums and a spa.

The next morning we set off, we visited some attractions, especially in the town of Paeroa, where L and P was invented. There was a huge bottle model of L and P in the front of a café. We went in for a look, but there wasn’t anything interesting so we left to see other attractions.

Once we arrived at Rotorua, we went straight to the Polynesian spa, which had some geysers but I didn’t bring swimming gear but my grandma and the visitor did so booked a 30-minute private room. My dad and me saw a few statues and sculptures so we took a few photos of them. After that, we visited the Rotorua museum but the receptionist told us we didn’t have enough time to explore the whole museum so we took a brochure and went back to the spa.

After the spa, we went to a plant nursery that you could go into but it was closed so we went to Capers Epicurean, the best café in Rotorua 2015. The food was great, and we moved on.

Then we drove to a place called a “thermal park”- a place that has lots of mud geysers and other exciting things that are related to volcanoes. I have to admit; it was pretty scary at times when gas was flowing out of weird holes.

The thermal park was the last place we visited in Rotorua.

We then headed back to Auckland on a long, 4-5 hour journey. However, because we were packed with supplies and light traffic, we arrived in Auckland in the 3-4 hour period. That’s my trip to Rotorua and Tauranga. Here are some photos.

 Hope you enjoyed it.
