indoor rock climbing

our hostel in rotorua has a rock climbing wall. actually, let me back up a minute, we are now in the most popular tourist destination in the country, rotorua. the place is so popular because it sits directly on a volcanic range and there are boiling mud puddles, geysers, thermal spas, champagne lakes, crystal-clear natural springs and an unsettling number of active volcanoes. but we'll tell you more about that later and post some pictures.

right now, the important thing is that della and i went rock climbing without any hands-on assistance. we obvoiusly had to go through a short discussion about the belay device but after that we were left alone to choose our routes and belay each other (which della had never done, and i had only done twice). it was really fun and a good workout. we hope to do it again soon.
