Tarawera, nr Rotorua

At last! I've managed to get a good enough connection to post a very belated back blip - many thanks to Kiwilizzie and Teejay who I managed to meet up with On Sunday for the tip! This is Lake Tarawera, with The Mount of same name in background; I can vouch for the fact that mountain lake water is icy cold - but bracing! - having been mad enough to immerse myself in it. more belated back blips to come - soon hopefully. Will keep comments (mercifully) short.
