We left Taupo this morning and headed into Rotorua. It smells like ass but gawd is it beautiful.
The smell and the scenery are both attributed to the high levels of geothermal activity that permeate the area. Everywhere we turn there are jets of steam seeping up from the ground and they all smell like sulfur. We could smell the town 20km before we actually got here and I think we shall only stay the day so that the smell doesn't have much chance to settle into our clothes and souvenirs! We'd hate to bring that back with us!
