Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: During our time in Rotorua, we experienced several different weather patterns. At first, it was bright and sunny, and I felt at home in a long sleeve shirt and jeans, although quickly this turned into rain. I would recommend layering during this time.

Toiletries and Medical Supplies: Readily available in town.

Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Wear comfortable shoes as walking is a must do around here.
Hat / sunglasses for a hot sunny day. Sunscreen is a must too.
An umbrella for a rainy day.

Toiletries and Medical Supplies: Can be found in the nearby supermarkets

Photo Equipment: Can be easily found in the town center

Camping/Beach/Outdoor Gear: Can be found but you might want to carry what you have already with you.

Luggage and bags: You don't really need to carry every stitch of clothing you ever owned for an average-sized trip here.

Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: If you go in the winter like I did, pack warm threads.

Toiletries and Medical Supplies: I don't see anything different you would need to stow in your toiletry bag here than to any other country or, for that matter, a short business trip within the States.

Photo Equipment: A 35mm camera with as much film as you think you need will probably suit most folks' purposes.

 Rotorua is a hub of activity, with much going on within a reasonable small area. Rotorua lies on the shores of Lake Rotorua and apart from the whiff of sulphur, is a great place! Actually, you very......

 You would think Maori land should look a little more exotic. But the hills around Rotorua are as green as the pine-covered Black Forest. Ok, not all trees are pines, and the bush is dotted with old......
