Waitomo Caves

We set off to Hamilton via Waitomo Caves for the uneducated these are glowworm caves! They were awesome. You are taken through some caves and put on to boats to travel through the darkness to see the glow worms there were millions of them- beautiful and then on to another cave to see the formations. Stalagtytes and Stalagmytes both were great. Out to scorching weather and then on to catch up with an old friend - Bette - fortunately we managed to find her we stopped at a police station for directions and we were only minutes from her home and she was in. So we caught up and had a cuppa before getting to our destination in Hamilton. The motel was super and had a bath a huge spa bath - big enough for two - need I say more! They also had an indoor heated swimming pool. We headed off into town to do a recky and out for tea before spending the next day there. We took to the botanic gardens to find a Pipe Band Competition in full flow - spooky or what. We watched for a while but as it was finishing and the sun was beating down on us we headed back to that swimming pool - bliss and then to top it off a spa bath! Out for tea and a good sleep!
