Great pictures, I love the lakes and beaches. I'll have to link a few of my own later.

*sigh* absolutely lovely.. It was a very sweet, tranquil morning with cool breeze, fresh air and blue/greenery all around. ... The bright sunshine and all the fresh feeling of early ...What a lovely way to start my day A well prepared breakfast would set a marvelous start too! I wish my mornings were like this - everyday

cheers.

a few snaps from a week trip down South.

I haven't got many great fotos of Welly btw, apart from some ugly business district scene or same old same old. Welly city centre isn't very pretty unlike Europe you know! In fact, I'd like to take some photos from my work (11th or 12th floor) which can be fantastic (The Beehive & Parliament's backyard scene - not open to public), however I do need permission from the principal adviser,,, Will do it sometime if I can manage...(?)

Some photos from our first few days in Welly - the first is a photo down near the harbour and the other two are views from the front deck of our house - still can't believe how lucky we are!

we are indeed high up....makes for good exercise getting up to our house after a hard days work! We are on the side of a hill in Wellington, in one of the southern suburbs. Like I say I really can't believe how lucky we've been. Before we came to NZ I had imagined a lovely hose with amazing view but thought it was a pipe dream...and now we're living that dream However, ask me again in a few months when we've been here for a while and maybe I'll have changed my mind.

So to give you an idea of how high up we are......and another view from our deck.
