Angora rabbit -- Mallory loved it.
Photos of the boys in some small caves in the Ruakari preserve near Waitomo.
Heidi and Nash walked back from Ruakari to Waitomo -- it took them about an hour, over large hills and through farms.
Mallory, trying and liking fish & chips. We were shocked -- it is the first time she has had fish and she is a very picky eater.
Right by our campground in Waitomo they had a Sports Day which included a "lolly drop" -- which is basically a helicopter flying over the field and dumping out candy. I think Luke is the only one who got a piece.
Here's the whole family geared up and ready to tour the glow worm cave.
After the glow worm cave, we toured a second cave. This second cave had a lot of animal bones in it, including the bones of a cow that had fallen in the cave from a hole in the ground. Apparently it is a big problem in that area -- there is even a Waitomo Animal Rescue Squad -- because there are so many sink holes in the fields and animals frequently fall into them.
