Dear Lake Taupo, Unlike your name suggests you were nothing like the color taupe. Drab and weary you were not. In fact you were quite the contrary: Colorful and full of life! Over the past several days I have been entertained by johnandnan's tales of streaky bacon and welcoming barbies. Without you, how would I have known about the wild bubbling frenzy, casually known to you as the thermal highway. An event worth tailgating for. Murphy's Irish Stout (from the Jolly Good Fellows Pub) in hand in preparation for the magnificence which can only be described as glorious mud.
Without question, you will be missed.
Just know that each time your dam opens and little piece of my heart breaks. My tears flow like Bloody Mary mix on a special occasion.
