Waiting for Nana and Easter in Queenstown

Nana - Welcome to NZ


Nana, Diane arriving in Christchurch. Wish I looked like this after a 15 hour flight!


Driving down to Queenstown we stopped off at Lake Tekapo.


Twizel. The town was built in the 60s for a new power plant, with a view to demolishing it oncethe building work was complete. In the meantime the residents had grown fond of their town and it stayed. Now a place on every salmon fisherman's radar.



Under the bridge in Twizel.

Our beautiful homestay (house swap) with views to The Remarkables and over Lake Wakatipu. Thanks Jen and Steve for a great 3 weeks.
