Tasman Bay on the way north

Oh yes, on our way north Anne and I had five very pleasant nights at Little Kaiterteri when I conducted the wedding of Anna & Andrew. Early one morning I headed around the hillside walkway and captured these images... Kaiterteri Beach, Nelson

These are pictures of the Raukokore Church and environs. The church is a quite magnificent landmark on a beautiful bay on the Bay of Plenty side of the Pacific Coast Highway.

North Island sojourn

Anne and I had 3 wonderful weeks up north this summer - first to Nelson for a wedding then over Cooks Strait to Taupo, Waihi Beach and then around remote East Cape. I snapped quite a few pictures around the Cape - mostly in black & white. I'll load the ones I liked the most on over the next few weeks.
