day 3
from massey to hamilton.  First we stopped at a private museum with loads of pics, posters and rugby items – Host Roy Skedgwell.  Had a meal there and then back on the bus.  Unloaded at our hotel in Hamilton.  I have relatives in nz and had told them that I would be in Hamilton and could we get together.  Called Valarie and she was able to pick us up and drive around Hamilton showing us the sites.  We then stopped at her house for some tea and then went Judith's house before had to frazier tech rfc for dinner.   Had dinner at the club and then it was back to hotel.  We ended up staying in to get some sleep.  We had an early start tomorrow - leaving at 7:30.
day 4
Our next stop was the Huka Falls and then Lake Tapo for lunch.  Couple of guys on the team tried the bungy jump.  As we were done with the bungy we saw the wales team bus driving around.  Easty knows the welsch coach so we stopped at the hotel and Warren Gatland came out and talked with us.
Then we were off to rotaroa for our 2 night stay.
We signed up for the hangei (maori experience) and went did that for 3 hours.  Returning to the hotel we had a drink and it was in the hot spring pool.
