On the way down from Coranet Peak - just outside Queenstown

yes I'm cold - take me back to my sub tropical island

Recent ski photos in Queenstown...wet from sunshine to snow very quickly. And bloody cold!

Basil is very nearly 13 now. However the beach life continues to suit him - despite cancer, a seizure, well dodgy hips and a suspected mini stroke!! As a rescure dog Basil receives global health care better than most humans. We pop a pill and he is off again! Despite a small lean to the left you can barely tell his troubles! He seems oblivious!

Nice morning on Waiheke. Spring has been very volitile with a bit of an artic blast keeping temperatures very honest and a good deal of rain. However should only be getting better.

Jenny finally gets to endulge in her favorite actvity! Amelie looking on and quite happy! Onsen hot pools with big opening windows to the mountains...very nice.
