Well I say great. It might well turn out to be crap but there you go :D

Please feel free to overload the server with an enormous amount of pictures. Absolutely anything and everything New Zealand.

Stunning beaches, huge mountains, penguins, trees, naked ladies, veiws, gardens you name it :)

In the bay of Islands, it is amazing pretty much every time we go out on the boat dolphins come to play - a few weeks ago we were diving and came up and our friend said that we had just missed a pod of dolphins, which was a shame, but we stayed in the water cos it was so lovely and just snorkelled about, then the pod came back! There were loads of them ( about 10) and we swam with them for about 2 hours, they were just playing round a cove ( in the bay of Islands again) It was possibly the most amazing thing in my whole life. They were close enough to touch ( we didnt) and jumping out of the water and lying on their backs. I smile every time I think about it.
