New Zealand

New Zealnd - August 11-15, 2007 - Auckland

Sometimes, fortunately, there is also the sun!.

New Zealnd - August 16-18 - Wellington - Kaikoura

Then Kaikoura with its rich marine life, Sperm Whales, albatross and lazy fur seals sunning under the snowy Kaikoura Range.

And they look at you by turning their heads upside down and not turning their necks because that's how it's done underwater: to look from underneath towards the surface...
