🇳🇿 North Island Day 5 | Rotorua - The City That Literally Steams!

A town where geothermal wonders meet farmyard fun—and yes, it smells like adventure! 🌋 Wai-O-Tapu Thermal Wonderland 🌈 Acid-green pools, champagne-colored springs, and sulfur vents hissing like dragons! ⏳ Took Route 2 (1.5hr walk)—pro tip: Bring a scarf to cover your nose! 🤧 🐑 Agrodome Farm Show ✂️ Sheep-shearing comedy show + feeding photogenic lambs! 🍯 Free honey tasting (sorry, no Manuka hype here). 🚠 Skyline Rotorua 🎢 Rode the gondola up, then luge-raced down like speed demons! 🌄 Panoramic views of Lake Rotorua (best at sunset!). ♨️ Polynesian Spa 💫 Soaked in 8 thermal pools under the stars—post-hike bliss! 💰 Pavilion pools = budget-friendly luxury. 🏡 Te Puia Māori Village 🔥 Cultural performance with haka + geothermal hangi cooking demo! 🗿 Carving school & kiwi bird sanctuary too. 👃 The "Scent" of Rotorua 💨 Sulfur aroma follows you everywhere—even your Airbnb! 🤔 How do locals cope? "You stop smelling it after a week!" (allegedly). #RotoruaRocks #NZRoadTrip #GeothermalGiggles #SheepSelfies #SulfurSpa
