Pictures taken on the way to the southern end of 90 Mile beach
(using the car hire that we won).
![]() Look familiar? Just like the UK, but on the other
side of the World! And all the trees and plants are
different.
![]() More hilly than the UK - Hobbit
Country
![]() There are very few sheep here - it's mostly cattle
country, but all very pretty
![]() Tree ferns are everywhere in the woodland in
this part of NZ - it is all very lush.
![]() ![]() There are lots of these as well - a kahakaha
we think.
![]() There are quite a lot of these lorries about
and they travel fast, unless going up hill, when they go very
slow!
We didn't meet much traffic, but some NZ drivers
are clearly crazy - the small truck behind actually
overtook the lorry as it went round this
hairpin bend.
