Well good morning friends. Today I'm coming from Hobbiton near Matamata. I've come down from Auckland today. I've always wanted to come here. I've been to a lot of the Lord of the Rings sets in New Zealand, particularly Edoras and various parts of Mordor and quite a lot of other areas, but I've never come to Hobbiton before, so here I am. Today I'm exploring the village.
I'm just outside Samwise Gamgee's house now.
Well friends I'm in the Inn of the Green Dragon having a drink, a whole pint apparently. It has been a very amazing tour and very well set up here. It's onto the next destination now.
I'm now at Waiotapu Hot Springs and there's some boiling mud here just out of Rotorua. It has been a very fascinating day today at Hobbiton and exploring the new houses they have built in the hills there and then coming out to the hot springs here and doing a walk around here. It was very interesting.
On that note, I'll call it a day. Thanks friends for joining me again today and I'll catch you somewhere else tomorrow. Until then, ciao for now.
