Hot Water

We had ham and egg pie for supper last night, but this is not it!  This is genuine sulphur coming from another thermal area north of Taupo where all sorts of mud comes to the surface under pressure from superheated water.  The silica which comes with it leaves all sorts of deposits which build up over the years forming interesting patterns and colours. However, the smell is pretty off putting when the steam blows in your direction.

However, if you can find a suitable thermal pool to bathe in, it is a really relaxing way to spend a few hours.
