Geyser

Hello today we went to geysers the geysers were so interesting where we we're was Rotarua a town on top of a volcano we saw so many bright colors there like this  

Now I will tell you what the colors are this is from the panflict 

Green: Colloidal sulphur/ ferrous salts

Orange: Antimony

Purple: Manganese oxide 

White: Silica

Yellow-primrose: Sulphur

Red-Brown: Iron oxide

Black: Sulphur and carbon

The huge amounts of colors in the rocks are all natural due to different mineral elements.b

For you're information sulphur is the stuff that made us dislike geyser a bit sulphur has the smell of what they say "Rotten Eggs" all of this steam smells awful 

Now this is what my father told me beneath my feet about 100 m down it bubbling lava and all of this bubbles up to the surface 

 

Now real explanation Beneath the grown is a system of streams which are heated by magma left over from earlier eruptions. 

The water is so so so boiling hot over 300 C that it takes away minerals from the rocks throughout which it takes them to the surface as rotten egg steam.

Now here are some pictures 

Me reacting to the color😜

Well after that mom and dad we're so nice for all of us to go on the luge, the luge it this like mini sled and  we go down this really fast hill 

Well another extreme sport tomorrow we are going Zorbing
