Thread: New Zealand South Island pics

Tweet

Have been deliberating whether to post pictures from my families recent holiday to the lower New Zealand South Island.
As you can tell I've caved in
Have narrowed the number of pictures down from the 2000 or so we took to the following 300 or so, hope it doesn't break the site.

There are a few scenery ones and a lot from museums (cars and machinery)
Hope you enjoy, could get boring though. and could take me a while to post them all.

Hey, I've doubled my post count..

What a great visual vacation you have given us and what a beautiful family you have also. I know that posting great and numerous pics like this is no easy job and I call it "Abover and Beyond the Call of Duty" so let me thank you again for your trouble and your generosity.

From memory was about 1800km was in mid July during the kids school holidays.

Probably won't post any more as the majority are pics of the family, then again you never know
.

Thanks all. We had a great time

Didn't have the time to study all the pics, but I will soon. Love the old Jawa speedway race bikes. It's wonderful that your getting out and taking it all in and it looks like there is a lot to see! I will revisit this thread when I can relax with a cup of coffee and take my time to enjoy it. eek: Thanks for posting this up... Not a fuzzy pic in the bunch.

Very nice pics . Really enjoyed looking at them . Thanks a lot for taking the time to share them .
