News from New Zealand

A view of Auckland from the ferry. Temperatures here are hot, hot, hot 24c a big contrast to the UK. 

The traditional houses are clapperboard designed to resist earthquakes.


Many of the flowers that grow in the UK are found here. Cacti and succulents that we grow indoors grow wild. Agapanthus grow in abundance in the verges in shades of blue and white.


The most special and spectacular plants are the tree ferns in many shapes and sizes all majestic as their fronds float in the breeze.


A old postbox the slot at the side was designed for you to post your letter if you were on horseback.


Stunning scenery along the Coromsndel peninsular.
