Family Vacation Pictures: Part 1A

I apologise for this week's pictures being so late. I got distracted last Sunday night unexpectedly and have been having trouble with this post ever since. I am posting these pictures in two parts because I can't get all seven in this post for some odd reason. These are my weekly pictures from 15 January.


On our way to Turangi on our 'family vacation,' Mark, Anna, and I stopped in Taupo to see some of the bungee jumping people. This is the main bungee jump from what I understand. No way am I doing this, but if you have to go bungee jumping, isn't this a beautiful spot to do it? You can see the little hut at the top of the cliff where you jump off the side.


Rotorua from the air on the gondolas. Anna is scared of heights, but Mark was really excited about going back up on the gondola. I did scare Anna a little more than anticipated, though, because I sort of leaned out the window to take this picture, and then I noticed the huge warning instructing me to stay completely inside the gondola.

These are the bobsled type things that we took down the track. I am sure these are all over the United States (I have already been informed that there are several tracks in the sparsely populated far west), but this one is cool because it is in New Zealand and I had never done it before.

This was also my first time on a chair lift! I love being up in the air, so I had to take a picture to commemorate.
