Re: NZ Photo Thread
OK I can play this game...
Until I can get to grips with how to post images so they show up normal size... the first two are Auckland, the third is Mt Ruapehu (in the summer, hence lack of snow).

Re: NZ Photo Thread
Sorry guys now that Debs has shown me how to do this properly I think she may have created a monster . Here are a couple of photos that show my home town Rugby Stadium where The fabulous Crusaders play & the second one is of The Paul Kelly Dancers (Cheerleaders). The blonde girl at the front is my girlfriends daughter Cherie so Im particularly proud of that photo

Ok let's see if I can do this...
If it works, it's the main street of Taihape... cultural centre of the planet and home of the Gumboot Throwing Championships...

Entering Wellington from the Ngauranga Gorge... bit wobbly as I was trying to change lanes at the time...
Civic Centre, Wellington...
Te Papa Museum, Wellington...
Civic Centre again, plus a UFO...
Open air sculpture - they carved these where they stand... then you can buy them...

Re: NZ Photo Thread
One for KJP.
Like the office. No glass ceiling there!!
Your 'mystery pic' is of Cap de la Hague, looking SE and Cherbourg can be seen too. Probably taken from around 30000ft I reckon. I'm only a learner pilot and don't do too much flying at those kinda heights in the Thruster and we don't do much channel crossing (Rotax failure over the water would be most unpleasant!!) :scared: . Once I get my wings I shall, no doubt be more adventurous.
You should Know this one!
Regards
