Day 67 March 7th 2016

I love taking photos out of plane windows but still don’t understand how the propellers are visible on photos when you can’t see them as they spin…. This is the view of Taranaki and the coast through the clouds.

Day 64 March 4th 2016

Great evening for flying into Christchurch.  Clear skies and the Kiwi beak of Farewell Spit and Golden Bay to our right.  We had fun trying to spot the beaches we walked across when we did the Abel Tasman and Awaroa which has recently been bought by the NZ public to gift back to the country for all to share.  What a beautiful country.

Day 63 March 3rd 2016

So how is it that in the southern hemisphere the first day of the season is on the 1st of the month but in the northern hemisphere the seasons change at the equinox?  The first of March definitely didn’t feel like autumn here but the light this evening down the river path and the colour of the fallen leaves is certainly consistent with autumn.

Day 61 March 1st 2016

First day of autumn in the southern hemisphere.  It rained but still very hot and humid.  A day at the computer,  a 14km training walk then an evening at home.  Here’s a photo of Nigel – at the computer, behind a bottle.
