"Not much . . .
just went for a boat ride . . .
and then a walk . . ."
A four hour boat ride in the South Pacific Ocean,
with enough winds and underwater turbulence to create a 15 foot swell!
Two whales came out to help!
Getting closer to the Island . . .
Landing on White Island, shuttled in a small rubber raft to a rock reef.
and then a 2 hour hike across a barren hot steaming island with landscapes of seeping molten sulphate, boiling mud pools and smoking volcanic ash!
Finally reaching the edge of a FRICKEN ACTIVE VOLCANO ! ! !
Crater Lake on White Island.
On the "edge" of an active volcanic crater at:
White Island in New Zealand!
