Preparing for Puke Apocalypse 4

We have arrived in Whaketane and tomorrow we are heading off to Wakaari or White Island which is an active maritime volcano. We all have to wear hard hats and gas masks and the 50km crossing is described as 'often rough'. For this reason the trip has been tentatively dubbed Puke Apocalypse IV: Volcanoes of Vomit, the others in the sequence being Kaikoura, the crossing to Stewart Island and Emma getting seasick sitting on a bench in Wellington. Ahem. Anyway, the weather looks pretty nice at the moment so we might get lucky.

Watch here for an update.
