Kerosene Creek

Beautiful. Read of it in Lonely Planet. First visit to Rotorua. Visited amazing sites at the adjacent Waiotapu complex ($30 worth it!)…and chose this over, say, Polynesian baths. Perfect intro to Rotorua (cheaper/prettier than the tourist establishments!). Not crowded 4 pm mid-July (winter!!). Cold out, warm in! Luckily, seemed clean – no beer bottles when we were there – please keep it that way!! Maybe DOC cleaned it? or good locals? Ugly graffiti over DOC’s useful info notice board. Was careful to clean up car and lock. I’m from N. Ireland. Lucky to be here, I guess…just don’t screw it all up people with trash! You’re lucky. So are we for visiting it. Hot & Cold next time…
