Rangitoto

Since we didn't do enough walking on Friday, we decided to hike a volcano on Saturday!
But it was worth it. We made it to the summit!
The view was breathtaking
Don't you like our bright colors?
Why not take a little detour to the lava caves?
Craters of the Moon, anyone?
Don't judge, my swimsuit kept me modest.
We took a refreshing dip in McKenzie Bay, complete with a lighthouse
This island reminded me a lot of yellowstone actually. Just not the sulphur smell...and no exotic colors either. So maybe it isn't really similar. Must have been the boardwalks and lava everywhere.
We had to take a ferry to get there and back. The harbour never gets old!
