Lake Okareka walk plus some thermal lakes
A walk around Lake Okareka. Parking near the end of Acacia Rd.
It was a nice calm day, and there was plenty of birds around. We encountered shags, herons, geese, swans, dab chicks, tomtits, kingfishers and possibly a pterodactyl.
Then we called into the car theft capital of NZ, rotorua, for a look around Kuirau Park. It had some nice hot pools and hot mud puddles dotted around the place.

Description
Lake Rotorua, New Zealand
Lake Rotorua, New Zealand
We visited Rotorua in January when Phillip was in the summer holiday. It was a cloudy day, we walked around Lake Rotorua, and took one hour scenic cruises.
The following information about Lake Rotorua is a copy from Wikipedia,
Lake Rotorua is the second largest lake in the North Island of New Zealand by surface area, and covers 79.8 km2.[1] With a mean depth of only 10 metres it is considerably smaller than nearby Lake Tarawera in terms of volume of water. It is located in the Bay of Plenty region. The city of Rotorua is sited on its southern shore, and the town of Ngongotaha is at the western edge of the lake.
Mokoia Island, close to the centre of the lake, is a rhyolite dome. It is probably New Zealand's best-known lake island, and is closely associated with one of the best-known Māori legends, that of Hinemoa and Tutanekai. Is said that Hinemoa swam across the lake to her lover Tutanekai who lived on Mokoia Island.
Owing to the geothermal activity around the lake (including still active geysers and hot mud pools), the lake has a high sulphur content. This gives the lake's waters an unusual yellowish-green hue.
