Christmas Party at Taupo

No, I've not gone mad, the weather here is a lot like December in the UK. Ross who owns Rainbow Lodge held a Christmas Party, the full works, Father Christmas, crackers and presents as well as free food and drink. This all happened on Wed 2nd July. There was even music from Cliff Richard and all the usual Christmas songs.
On Thursday the 3rd I left Lake Taupo to go to Rotorua where there is another skydive centre. But before I close on Taupo there were two very pleasant things to note, one, Ross from Rainbow Lodge refunded me 100 dollars to be given as a donation to NACC - this was totally unexpected, I was also given 25 dollars for NACC by Charlotte a guest at the lodge. Charlotte is traveling with a friend - I know 25 dollars was a lot for her - there is not much spare cash when you are travelling. I will tell something of Rotorua on my next post, I have managed to get 2 jumps in here but the weather has been very unsettled, so I think that will be about it. john 6/7
