我好像沒有什麼童年😅😅
第一次看到螢火蟲竟然是五六年前,
而且只有少少的幾隻⋯⋯
這次來到紐西蘭的Waitomo,
真的讓我又驚又喜,
地球上居然有這麼酷的地方⋯⋯
超級謝謝KKday的安排,
這趟旅行的最後行程,
讓我們在體驗完,
開車回奧克蘭的路上(將近兩個小時半)
都還是帶著笑容興奮地討論著⋯⋯
當初看到黑水漂流,
我整個霧颯颯~
原來,
這個體驗是在紐西蘭北島的 Waitomo,
Ruakuri cave進行。
它是在300多年前,
毛利人帶著狗狗發現的。
這個別有洞天的絕景洞窟超大的,
裡面除了有瀑布,
還有鐘乳石跟螢火蟲,
(鐘乳石不能用手觸碰唷,我們的汗是酸的,碰到它就等於殺了它了)
行程有分3小時跟5小時的,
我們這次是選擇3小時。
一抵達完成報到手續後,
就會開始著裝,
自己只要自備可以下水的泳衣,
以及換洗衣物就可以囉。
整個行程有一些攀爬跟跳瀑布,
(其實不深,我去的時候只到腰部)
在正式進洞窟前工作人員都會教導怎麼做最安全,
並且帶著試跳,
讓人相當安心!
全程除了被美景驚艷外,
還相當的刺激,
因為是在洞穴中,
前所未有的體驗真的很有一種探險的感覺~
除了刺激外,
阿雞最愛的就是沿途看到的螢火蟲了,
它們真的超級超級超級多的,
跟我以前看到的完全不一樣,
應該是幼蟲,
所以都吸附在岩壁上。
當我們漂流在洞窟的溪流,
抬頭仰望上面的螢火蟲,
很像在看滿天的星星,
我覺得很浪漫💕
真的超級推薦啊!
然後是說我們已經在計畫下次要再去挑戰5小時的行程了💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

懷特摩,可以說是紐西蘭北島一個非常知名的景點區域,這裡不只有螢火蟲洞,還有黑水漂、Ruakuri Cave和Aranui Cave等景點,若要全數跑過一遍,可能待個1~2天會是比較恰當的長度。
這次來訪先後去了螢火蟲洞和Ruakuri Cave鐘乳石洞,特別推薦不能拍照的螢火蟲洞,數以萬計的藍色螢火蟲出現在頭頂時,心中的震撼絕對是照片和言語無法形容的!

《紐西蘭遊記 Day 6-7》
《Day 6》
終於到我成個trip最期待嘅環節!
身為Lord of the Rings粉絲嘅我黎到紐西蘭點可以錯過Hobbiton?! Hobbiton就係Lord of the Rings入面嘅Shire,係專登為拍戲而起㗎!
我地join咗Grayline Tour,包去Hobbiton、Ruakuri Caves及Kiwi House。第一站係Hobbiton,Hobbiton位於Matamata,由Auckland出發要兩個半鐘。去到會跟當地Hobbiton Tour遊覽拍攝場地,每團十幾人,每十五分鐘出一團(出得咁密可想而知每日有幾多人慕名而來)。整個Hobbiton比我想像中大,真係成條村莊咁,哈比人屋會根據唔同嘅scale建成,所以每間屋大小都會有啲唔同,但大部分道具都係迷你版,超可愛!導遊會邊行邊講解戲中邊部分喺度取景,但遊客係唔可以入屋內,只可以喺外面影相,行哂之後會有半個鐘俾你入餐廳飲杯野休息下(餐廳係唯一開放俾遊客嘅屋仔),跟住個tour就完㗎喇。真正參觀時間得一個鐘,個人覺得太過趕,好多地方都冇時間影相,有啲走馬看花嘅感覺,但無奈參觀者一定要跟Hobbiton tour,冇得自己行,所以都冇辦法~
由於我地跟Grayline Tour,所以可以留喺裏面食埋lunch,lunch係buffet形式,食物都唔錯㗎,但記得冇跟團(依度係指遊行團或local tour,唔係Hobbiton Tour)嘅朋友係冇得留低食飯㗎,因為佢地只接受group booking。

食完飯就出發去第二站Ruakuri Caves。依個cave主要係睇鐘乳石,同有少量螢火蟲,可以近距離接觸,整段路大約行四十五分鐘,有導賞,期間你會見到有人玩black water rafting(坐水泡沿住水流欣賞洞穴),好似好好玩咁,但我地冇時間所以玩唔到(哭)。其實原本個trip係去Waitomo Caves,嗰度主要係坐船睇螢火蟲,上網睇相好似幾壯觀,但司機就話嗰度商業化啲,同只可以遠觀,冇得近距離接觸,咁邊個好睇啲就因人而異喇。
🐥 Kiwi House
最後一站黎到探紐西蘭國寶- Kiwi。Kiwi喺恐龍時代已經出現,雖然好多鳥類已經絕跡,但kiwi就一直生存至今,當然數量唔多,同埋已經被受保護。Kiwi係夜行生物,所以kiwi house係好暗,而且聽導賞講kiwi一日要瞓二十個鐘㗎!所以要揾到佢都唔易。導賞為咗要俾我地更清楚睇到佢,專登攞啲食物入去引佢,見到佢嘅第一感覺「原來kiwi係似一隻暴走中冇翼嘅火雞(笑)。」除咗kiwi,園區仲有其他雀鳥睇,但地方好細,所以半個鐘就行完。
跟住就搭返兩個半鐘車返Auckland。
🍦 晚餐簡單買咗外賣返酒店食。返酒店途中見到有間雪糕店大排長龍,見狀梗係排埋一份啦~雪糕店非常神秘,除咗牆上有雪糕名,你係唔會見到圖,連雪糕櫃都睇唔到,所以自己叫咗咩都唔知,夠哂驚喜,好彩最後叫嗰兩杯都係正嘅,presentation都好靚,唔怪得都排隊。
《Day 7》
🐧 🐠 🐘 🐆 Kelly Tarlton's Sealife Aquarium & Auckland Zoo
一早搭鯊魚shuttle前往,車程約二十分鐘。水族館有企鵝、海獅、鯊魚等海洋生物,不時會有餵飼環節,同海洋公園差唔多,喺到留咗約兩個鐘就搭巴士出返市區。外賣咗幾舊壽司上uber食,前往Auckland Zoo。Auckland Zoo面積唔算好大,但動物種類都幾多,園區內仲有kiwi house,可以再探下依隻爆走火雞,但由於屋內太黑,爆光不足(唔可以用閃光),加上佢地醒咗走黎走去,搞到影咗半個鐘都未影到張好清楚嘅。。。留咗兩三個鐘就出返去食buffet喇!
經過朋友喺trip advisor嘅一番research,見到Langham Hotel - Eight嘅buffet幾好評,再經confirm係有任食生蠔,所以就決定去食。超鐘意佢啲oyster,雖然細細食,但好creamy好鮮,仲要係自己任攞,唔係排隊要人開,等勁耐嗰啲,所以唔覺唔覺就食咗二十隻~之後發現原來依啲叫bluff oyster。Buffet款式多,有燒烤,即叫即燒,牛排都有好幾款,仲有草泥馬肉,真係第一次見!我地試咗舊好細好細嘅,味道好似牛肉,但好韌好韌,唔係幾好食🙈仲有點心、東南亞菜、西餐,大量甜品,好滿足吖!
💡 紐西蘭盛產bluff oyster,好多餐廳都有得食。

Australia and New Zealand might be quite a journey for some, but they’re totally worth the visit!
Most people will have heard of Bondi Beach in Sydney, Australia. For three weeks every year, the coastal walk along the beach is transformed into a 2km long art exhibition called Sculpture by the Sea.. It’s one of the largest free exhibitions in the city and you can see over 100 artworks by artists from Australia and across the world.

Explore New Zealand’s Rotorua attractions, and if you’re a water sports enthusiast, make sure that Kaituna River is at the top of your list. Located just 15 minutes from Rotorua city, this epic stretch of water is known for its heart-pounding drops, whirlpools, and waterfalls. https://theculturetrip.com/pacific/new-zealand/articles/the-top-10-things-to-do-and-see-in-rotorua-new-zealand/
Here’s something fun to do on a hot summer’s day in New Zealand: grab a boogie board and head 50 kilometres northwest of Gisborne to the Rere Rockslide. This natural attraction will get you rushing past the watery slopes as you splash into a huge pool. Enjoy the fun-filled slide down the bottom, and make sure to check out Rere Falls while you’re there. https://theculturetrip.com/pacific/new-zealand/articles/the-10-best-things-to-do-in-gisborne-new-zealand/
The Onsen Hot Pools are located near Queenstown in New Zealand and offer secret views across the Shotover River canyon.

New Zealand’s native glow worm species, the Arachnocampa luminosa, are found deep within the country’s limestone caverns, where they spin their silk nets and lower themselves to capture their unsuspecting prey. Like our little glowing friends? The country is home to some amazing places to see glow worms, such as the Waitomo Caves. https://theculturetrip.com/pacific/new-zealand/articles/9-places-to-see-glow-worms-in-new-zealand/
