WAIKATO RALLY 3

[toads]

Now we are on a good track Backpackers!!!! why didnt I think of that, ON YA AFFMAN

Do you think Rotorua is to far away for the welly MOB?

I will look at other Backpackers in the area today.

I like the idea of Napier or New Plymouth as the roads in the area are so much better, but then again Taupo has a race track , but the track is booked,,,,,, mmmmmmmmm thinking thinking thinking

Good stuff though people, keep up the thinking

Rotorua is an awesome ride for us, so we're keen, there is a relatively cheap municipal motorcamp in rotorua can't think what it's called offhand, has lots of cabins as well as camping area, have stayed there before, plus has some rather dated hotpools. However anything in rr needs to be booked well in advance, it's very hard to get last minute accomodation there.

Okay, Ive done some research and there is only one backpackers in the central north island which can cater for a reasonable number of peps around 80, Ive contacted them but it wont be enough people Im sure.

So this is where we are heading at this stage.

National Park has a bunch of large accomodation Backpacker style facilities, 144 peps (now we are talking) None with a pool but hot tubs are available at one.
It is central
it is big enough
it has a bar and Disco
it has good roads around it

So will keep you all posted about the responses to the emails Ive sent before posting anything "official like"

Sounds like it will be a goody !!!!!!!!!!!

If you got any comments make em now !!!!!!!!!!!

hEY tOADS, ITS ABOUT 40 KMS FROM THE LAST DESTINATION, SO NOT MUCH FARTHER (sorry caps)

And there is a great pub in Natioanl park who we will be talking to re a band

Bah, it's not that bad...I went there for the first time about 2 years ago thinking I'd be driven out by the smell...but to me it just smells different. Not bad just different. You end up only noticing it when you think about it...although when you get back home and have a shower, your clothes remind you what it smells like

To summarise-

I like Rotorua and I'm proud of it!!

The smell is hydrogen sulfide too much and it'll kill you. A reall problem when I was digging drains in Rotovegas, had to moniter the gas level all the time to stay safe. Anyway you don't smell it after a while cause it deadens the sense of smell.

How bout as maybe a small kernal of an idea...hiring a babysitter at the place we go to?

Like have 2 rooms dedicated to kids and 2 babysitters?

I dunno just an idea.

[RiderInBlack]

Don't forget there is a couple of KB'ers that were keen to do a bit of jelly wrestling, so we must try to cater for them. Would not like them to have missed out

If for some reason you need a marque I can probably get one next to nothing, 9x9,or 9x12 or 9x18m. Probably dont need it but another option.
