Sorry it's late, but we went to a Maori Hangi last night so I didn't have time to do a posting.
The floatplane trip was fantastic. It was bright, sunny, and calm, and the views from the plane were superb. We even managed to see Mt Ruapehu which we didn't get to see the day before. And we got good views of the dormant volcano Mt Tarawera (pictured) and many of the lakes round Rotorua.
Then in the evening we went to a Maori cultural performance and hangi meal. The performance was fascinating, explaining a lot about the history and culture. Afterwards we had a walk through the wildlife park at night, including a kiwi house where we saw (and heard!) them at close quarters.
