Spent two days in Waitomo where I SHOULD have been caving and having an awesome time but instead was relegated to being stuck in my cabin with a GODDAMN FLU! Waitomo is a lovely place however and I have to say I was impressed. Even tho it rained constantly, with thunder and lightning as well to sweeten the deal, the place was awesomely picturesque.
After spending two days in bed TRYING to recover I headed to Rotorua to the Hot Rock backpackers hostel. Once I arrived I found I was sharing a room with a quiet Scot by the name of Colin. My other room-mates turned out to be two American girls of hot-ness status. Usually I would've turned on the charm but I have to say a flu is THE least sexy thing known to man... well, maybe not THE least sexy but I couldn't think of anything less sexy at the time. I hit the bar with them anyway since they were a decent chat. The bar turned out to be pretty random: I got talking to a German biker who'd had many random adventures in his time and then ran into a bunch of Kilted Scots and Irish lads on a stag night so ended up talking to them for a bit.
I hit the sack early tho since I was still ill. Hoping I can see a marked improvement by tomorrow or I'll be in a bit of a mood.... again.
