misty mountain

I have a feeling I will be posting a lot of photos of Mt Taranaki since I only have to walk out to the yard garden to see it.

care to guess?

I have no idea what this it--whether it's the remains of last year's blooms or the beginning of something new--but I take photos of it just about every time I see it at Hollard's because the color stands out. I believe it's witch hazel.

my valentines' day gift

was a scenic tour at Akaroa harbor.

It included lots of sailboats...

some krill (that stuff that whales eat)...

seeing Hector's dolphins, the smallest in the world and only found in NZ waters...

lots of seals....

little blue penguins (the smallest in the world)...

and more beautiful scenery than I can describe!

Thanks, Hubby, you're the best!

clouds




I have been fascinated with the clouds over the islands of New Zealand since the day I arrived. Hubby and the kids think I'm a bit unhinged, still taking shots of clouds after 6 years here. And when I warned them that my Bestest Friend would be the same way when she came for our wedding, they didn't believe me--but she was!

As I am reminded often, I'm not in Kansas, anymore.

trees in pukeiti





The first and last photos are of a Rimu tree which only grows in the southern pacific rim.
