Te Aroha and Paeroa

Another sunny, clear, cold day. After leaving Rotorua our first stop was Te Aroha where e headed to the hot pools for a soak.

Our favourite pool is just out of sight, in front of the little building. It's like a big spa pool and is the hottest.

We had hoped to have a session in the recently restored Edwardian bath house but it was fully booked.

The buildings and layout of the Domain reflect the prosperity Te Aroha enjoyed in Edwardian times, when it was a popular spa town.

Just down the road is Paeroa, where we parked for the night beside the rail trail.

Another town full of antique shops...


We spent a quiet evening at Paeroa before heading home, our first trip in the new bus completed.
