I'm back!!

While I sort my photos, here are some that were taken from the plane. Some have been edited more than others.

Farewell Spit

Since Farewell Spit has a lot of land that is restricted to hikers, we took a four-wheeler tour bus to the end.

I will have more photos and information on my other blog in the next few days. Click here.


This is Cape Farewell.

The lighthouse at the end of the spit.

 The constant wind makes these tiny, great formations.

This is a view of thousands of gannets across the sand.

A fur seal scurrying away after the bus disturbed his nap.
