Trying Again

Several people had trouble viewing my photos on yesterday's post (Geothermal Wonders) and I have not been able to find a way of fixing the issue so I will reload them today and see how we go.

Steam fumarole in a public park

A sulphur deposit

Lakes of boiling water

A waterfall of hot water

A very active pool of mud

Various colours in the hot water

Pohutu Geyser in Rotorua (1972)

Hopefully the photos will all upload correctly today.

It will be a bit of a sad day today as I have a funeral to attend - the 90 year old mother of one of my sisters-in-law has died.  I knew her many years ago when we lived in the same district.
It is always hard when one loses that last remaining parent.

Margaret.

Postscript:
I have just been looking at the News online, and see the World Health Organisation has declared COVID-19 (the coronavirus) a pandemic.  Very sad to see this happen as it will now cause so much more fear among people.
This virus appears to be highly contagious but, realistically, you are probably more likely to die from influenza than COVID-19.
Nevertheless, take care everyone.  Margaret xx

    1. Good point Iris. Perhaps we will say I was explaining and not complaining. Blogger is free, and I appreciate that as I enjoy writing this blog, and reading all the blogs that I follow.

  13. yes I agree with you about the corona virus, the way I look at it is that more people die of hunger in our world than this, except for those with health issues others seem to be recovering from it, can't be any worse than when I had swine flu over 10 years ago.
