January 2009 in NZ

Some pretty (and not so pretty pics) of my last month in NZ ...


WELLINGTON:

Flying out North Island & South Island

The view from Ewa's.



Nice street art.


Deluxe.


Oriental Bay.


CHRISTCHURCH:

The clouds look like UFOs.


INVERCARGILL:
The town I was born in. It's like it was a successful city between 1880 and 1920, and has never recovered (or rebuilt) since. The colours on most the buildings are the same as they were when I was a kid, except now, they are flaked, peeling, and full of decay.


Dee Street, Invercargill

Brunt out Road Knights House.


Up an alley somewhere off Dee Street.


Christmas decorations on Dee Street - they have been the same since I was a kid.


How did the swan ever survive and still look so good?


Southland - a land of very big skies.


The coolest cow ever.


Moeraki Beach.


If this is too wrong, let me know and I'll get rig of it!
