New Zealand

Broadcasting as it used to be in New Zealand. An old station in a field near Waipawa.
Te Mata Peak near Havelock North in New Zealand's North Island.
The coast at tiny Herbertville near Cape Turnagain on the east coast of the lower North Island of New Zealand, a small seaside resort with the best beach on the Hawkes Bay coastline south of Napier
Main street of oddly symmetrical Eketahuna in the centre of New Zealand's North Island. We never did find the "eatere"
Leaving the dull clouds of the hometown for the clear skies of the south west Pacific.
Toilets at the station. The toilets were the same, but the Ladies got better lettering. Waihi, New Zealand.
The face in the window. At Kumar's Indian restaurant in Paeroa, New Zealand.
Coventry dairy in Paeroa, New Zealand.
Party invitation in rural New Zealand. See Travel Stories.
The Zephyr Six outside the famous "Eke". See Travels in Elsewhere
Sunny's discount warehouse, Paeroa, New Zealand.
Very long Maori place name which impresses tourists if you say it quickly. See Travel Stories.
Okarito, way down the west coast of New Zealand's South Island: home to author Keri Hulme, strange stones on the beach and a million sandflies.
Lake Brunner in New Zealand's South Island.
"The most photographed tree in the country," said Russell the fishing guide -- and you can see why. Lake Brunner, South Island, New Zealand
Tree house at Hapuku Lodge, Kaikoura, New Zealand. Luxury room with a view to the sea one way and the snow-dusted mountains the other. It doesn't get much better than this.
Music Department buildings at the University of Otago, Dunedin, New Zealand.
Famous, and famously over-priced, crayfish caravan north of Kaikoura on the east coast of the South Island of New Zealand. Great location though.
Lake Brunner in the South Island of New Zealand
Even the laundromat in Westport on New Zealand's West Coast of the South Island enjoys a historic building.
Kiwi Gothic? Photo in the hotel now known as "Formerly The Blackball Hilton". Complex name, but it avoided a lawsuit from the Hilton Hotel chain for the hotel in Blackball in New Zealand formerly known as "The Blackball Hilton".
Short people must have it tough in the bottom of the South Island of New Zealand. They appear to be rounded up and put in pens.
Lake Brunner in the South Island of New Zealand.
On top of the Franz Joseph Glacier, South Island, New Zealand
Morning at Waipari Lodge, a remote 10,000 acre, deer-filled region of native bush south of Taupo in New Zealand's North Island. Lotsa goats, and good fishing too. Hunter's paradise.
View from the top: the Central Plateau of New Zealand's North Island from Waipari Lodge.
The famously long and shaky Tokaanu Wharf which juts out into beautiful Lake Taupo in New Zealand's North Island. Tiny Tokaanu boasts a fascinating Maori and settler history, cheap property, hot pools and is within a short drive of the ski-fields.
U2 in Auckland, New Zealand in . . . 2007? They were smart enough to suggest something about Aotearoa -- and we loved that. Great concert -- and they did something which suggested "Phoenix" in Arizona when I saw them there too.
How to prevent coastal erosion, west coast on New Zealand's North Island.
A watercolour page and ink script from a journal illustrating a walking journey through marshes and beaches near the west coast of Auckland, New Zealand. (For my friend Guy: see Absolute Elsewhere)
And that would be Wellington Harbour, just after dawn.
From Pukehina Beach in New Zealand just as the season changed to autumn
Two years later, same room and same view in New Plymouth, New Zealand
