Hi all,

A couple of shots from my recent very short trip to New Zealand for Xmas. These are from around Taupo and the road from Taupo back to Napier. The weather conditions weren't ideal for nature photography, but unfortunately you can't pick the weather on the day you are going to be at some of these wonderful places.

The pink sheep are from Sheepworld which is between Dome Valley and Warkworth on the main highway North of Auckland.

Cheers,
John B
