This is Abel Tasman National Park - a natural wonderland. With lots of little bays and beaches you can camp on and never see another person!
These are the Canterbury Plains with the Southern Alps in the background.
This is one of hundreds of small islands in the Bay of Islands up in the Winterless North of the North Is. You can buy one and live on it if it takes your fancy! Plenty of fish and shellfish to eat, endless sunshine - you can do a Crusoe!
This is Ruapehu erupting. It went on for weeks like this but bigger. The whole sky was filled with rolling grey ash and the land for hundreds of miles around was covered. It was a scary-beautiful sight.
