2/8 – Tauranga, New Zealand

We went to see the Otorohanga Kiwi House Native Bird Park and the Waitomo Caves at this port, with a lunch stop at a local farm.  Though they only had one kiwi bird, Otorohanga was very interesting.  It was fun to see the various native birds of New Zealand.

The Waitomo Glow-worm Caves were awesome.  They took us on a walking tour through the caves and gave us their history.  Then we boarded a small boat and rode along an underground river.  There were thousands of glow-worms hanging from the ceiling of the caves.
