Short ride in NZ

Just nipped down the high street the other day and got back 1800km later (only a short ride over a couple of days). Have included a couple of pictures of the trip.

Its just coming to the end of winter here. The location is the Milford Sounds in New Zealand.


Down this valley


Past some hills


A lake or two


Up another valley


Under a mountain


To the coast for a cup of tea.


There are some more pictures Here

What part of "Its just coming to the end of winter here" did you see? It looks like plenty of winter left. Was that the south island? Looks beautiful! Nice nice pics!

You live in a beautiful part of NZ Andy. Those are some great photos.

I was down there 2 years ago for the RAT Raid in Dunedin. That was in Feb so no snow at road level which was good

Some photos in my album if you're interested.
