Day 43 Rotorua

Rotorua is well known for its geothermal activity and tourists flock to its hot pools. One of the down sides to this activity is the strong rotten eggs smell. We walk along the lake shore and witness water boiling up through the mud all over. We walk through the Polynesian Spa on or way to the museum. The government had built an elaborate building for bath houses . Although not used for a bath house any more it is now a museum that tells the story of the original building including a tour of the original baths and mud treatment rooms in the basement. We then make our way to " Eat Streat " , a street of only eating establishments, for supper.
