Britt's neck is doing better, although he's still healing up, but I think we are good to go. If it ever stops raining, we will head to Rotorua tomorrow (Rotorua, that's the name! And send your troubles down the drain!) and spend a couple of days soaking in hot pools and learning about Maori culture and geothermal energy, possibly not to include Christmas as the entire country apparently shuts down. Thence to Tongariro National Park to hike around hopefully inactive volcanoes, and then to Waitomo for the glowworm caves and something intriguingly called "black-water rafting." Updates to come as I get net access.

Happy holidays of whatever sort you celebrate. I am personally planning to celebrate get-the-hell-out-of-Dodge day.
