Default A few piccies for you!
As Promised....

Firstly, a nice view, just for Steve:



Here's a very crowded beach scene, from Mount Maunganui:



Tauranga City Centre... Quite a lot of the towns and cities look similar to this style of construction, until you get to the larger centres where the buildings get a bit taller!!:




Not far from Tauranga, we have McLaren Falls (large waterfall used for hydroelecticity generation):



Further away in Taupo, this is Huka Falls. Its a warm water fall from the geothermal activity... quite odd to stick your hand in a waterfall and feel hot water!



Just outside Taupo, comes a place called 'Craters of the Moon'. Big holes in the floor with large pressurised steam vents coming from the depths below! Its a huge place well worth a walk round, but dont get too concerned when you feel the ground shaking underneath your feet.. Its, erm, normal...



And last, but not least... This is a piccy that Welshgirl took. Its just a piccy of the sky at sunset, but its probably the most amazing sunset we've ever seen. I dont know how or why, but clouds are very different and quite amazing compared to the UK! Unfortunately, the small picture doesnt do it justice...



Well, thats a few for now! Adding more to the collection soon, provided they dont drive anyone into depression as they cant be in NZ yet (eh Steve?!)

Wow Taffy
Thanks for sharing those. It certainly brightened up a dark January day - can't wait

How are things going for you anyhow?

All the best
