I was picked up by the rafting company and taken out to their site to get kitted up. Yet more wriggling into a wetsuit! Then it rained. It rained a lot!
The guides got very excited, "cool, the river's gonna be sweet!" They then went to check it out and decided it would be a little too "sweet" and the trip had to get cancelled.
I was disappointed but I've done rafting before so I'll live. We were offered the chance of a trip on another river but I didn't have time as I had to get back to town to chatch the bus to Taupo.
Spent the afternoon in Taupo just wandering and exploring the town but as it was Good Friday most things were shut.
