Lake Tarawera on...   Dial up!

Well we are not to be thwarted!   Even if we have left the modern world behind we still have the good old comin' at ya 48 kps old standby super dooper dial up to connect to the outside world.

Anyway the first thing of course was to work out how the heck to get here...   I decided to delegate the task of navigation to other members of the delegation...

Because we are staying a little bit out of town we had to stock up on essential survival items...

Some of the ingredients were.... 'interesting'...   There were some hurried discussions to smooth over any potential 'diplomatic issues'.

Rotorua is a swell place...  complete with geothermal bidets for after litter box use...

All this brought to you at the blistering speed of 48 kbps!    Oh and the fire is not for show...  it is currently 0 deg C and it is expected to be -3 deg C overnight...   extra quilts have been issued for the kitty baskets.

Oh and I have no idea where that packet of treat size Moro Bars came from...   they must be 'someone else's'....
