Congratulations to you two showing that male and female who are married and committed to each to a lifeling marriage and enjoy each other’s company! This is so beautiful and inspiring. May GOD continue to bless you and your sons!
Hey Mike, do You know that cold showers can get You horny real quick? especially in the summer time? don't believe Me? try it for Yourself & find out. 🇭🇲👌🤭😀😃😄😆😁😅😂🤣😭👍🇦🇺
It's funny you should mention that. Rocco the older boy gets cheeky to me all the time and Joelle just looks at me and says 'he's you' so don't get mad haha
Our pleasure. Glad we gave you a little break at work. So glad you liked it. We want to do more adventures and this video is a bit of a test to see if our audience will like them or not. So far so good!
Looks like an awesome fun time the whole family had. I wish I would have known this facility existed when I visited the Rotorua area. I did manage to go for a helicopter trip over the area with my youngest son. Would love to go back some day. Keep up the vlogs. 👍❤️
Every time I see a Mike and Joelle video come up, I click Like even before I watch the video, because I already KNOW that it will make me smile. What a Lovely Family! This is the first video that I have seen with your Sons. I love you all. From South Louisiana.
That looked like an outstanding family outing. I cannot get over how fast you guys have grown. But you guys deserve all the subs, (even if I can't always understand the words coming out of your mouths) Mike is funny and personable and Joelle's smile and laugh are infectious, even if your having a bad day you just can't stay grumpy when watching you guys. Hope you all have a wonderful holiday and include us without intruding on your vacation time too much.
Amazing thank you so much for your kind words. Our goal is to lift people’s moods. We had a great time and didn’t feel like we filmed that much. Thanks for watching.
Joelle hit that cold water immersion like a trouper! Didn't realise until the luge how hairy her legs were though! What a lovely family and a fantastic location.
Wow! What a beautiful country you guys live in! What a cool family outing! Flying down the hill in a beach ball.! Or those awesome pools! Thanks for showing me your country!
Thanks for that. I experienced Rotorua back in 2011 when a group of of us had a mountain biking trip. We also did the luge at the Skyline. Brought back some great memories
Spent quite a bit of time there when working down under as we had a sub contractor there. Yes it smells of rotten eggs, but the mud bath was just fantastic.
We had these OGO balls at the ski resort I worked at in Pennsylvania when I retired in 2008. We had a few of the water balls and a couple of the balls where one person was strapped into a seat in the ball and you went down the hill end over end. We called that one the "vomit express". The water balls were the most popular as you could put several people in the ball at one time. The water used in the balls came from one of the wells, it was 57 degrees Fahrenheit, okay in the summer, not so refreshing in late autumn. We were one of the only facilities in the USA to have this feature. The company that developed the technology and manufactured the balls was located in your homeland, New Zealand. Very interesting to see them in your video, I hope you enjoyed the ride.
Awesome! I can 100% see why it would be called the vomit express if you were strapped in!! They had some hot tubs you could sit in after the ride. It was awesome fun. Thanks for watching.
@@mikeandjoelle. Although the material used to construct the balls was quite heavy gauge they would occasionally get punctured. A specialist had to be called in to make the repair as our staff was not authorized to work on them. We always ran two or three balls in rotation depending on how busy we were with "victims". The "catchers" at the bottom of the hill had a tough job since they had to stop the ball, get the people out, empty out the water, and then push it onto the waiting trailer to be taken back up the hill for another run.
May 18th, 1988, waiting at the airport in Keri Keri for a flight to Rotorua at 1530. Flight canceled due to earthquake about an hour earlier. Met the famous jockey Bill Shoemaker with over 8800 wins. Asked about driving there and they said the main road had dropped 7 feet in places.
Thank you for taking us on your family adventure. It was so much fun. Yall make the best videos and Jo you gotta do something to beat Mike at lol 😂 please keep the videos coming
Enjoyed Rotorua. Got used to the rotten egg smell. Went to a Hangi dinner and tried eel. Loved all of NZ. Wish I was well enough to visit again. Looking forward to your video.
With our family somehow conversations always lead to a bodily function too. My wife has IBS so discharges lots of gas. Since we celebrated our 45 anniversary. 🎉. Officially now retired and old farts. Your videos are awesome. Best from the Motor City in Michigan USA.
And I thought that the bungee jumping was as good as it got!!! Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy. Joe Here in quiet (😵💫) Idaho and Alaska -- where it's still summer. 🙃
wow, such a great adventure. I remember going up in the gondola but I don't remember anything else up there, but then we were there in the off season. I think we went to some farm place as well
Joelle, Mike thank you so much for your videos. God Bless you and your family 🙏 🙌👏🙏.
You are so welcome! Thank you and have an epic day.
All your little helpers. Can’t go wrong. Enjoy!
Haha sooo many helpers
Congratulations to you two showing that male and female who are married and committed to each to a lifeling marriage and enjoy each other’s company! This is so beautiful and inspiring. May GOD continue to bless you and your sons!
I can tell already this is going to be their best video so far
@@lonelysoul2329 I agree. Love these guys great videos and family.
What fun. I see the family sticks together as long as it stays out of cold water.
Joelle loves doing ice baths etc. The rest of us prefer a spa. haha.
@@mikeandjoelle. watch Eli from Russia mate she does ice baths. in Siberia.

It takes take a while but you do get used to the smell don’t you. Awesome you had a Hangi Dinner. Glad you liked our little slice of paradise 😊
