This is the entrance to the Maori village/museum of Whakarewarewa located in Rotorua. This archway commemorates all those from this village who have fought in wars throughout the world.
These are two lakes or lagoons behind Whakarewarewa. The mist you can see on them is actually steam as these bodies of water are being geothermally heated.
This is a Ball Dance performed by women, but originally by men. The white things are balls attached on the ends of strings and the women twirl them around and hit them on the back of their hands. The balls are soft so it doesn't hurt.
Although I managed to see living Kiwis, I could only take a picture of this stuffed one. Because they are nocturnal, they are sensitive to both noise and light so pictures are not permitted.
