There's one place that you're welcome to

<shakes head>

What time is it ? Is it morning ?

Am now back from New Zealand. You didn't break the UK while I was away, did you ?

In summary, I saw:

• Penguins.


• Volcanoes.


• Really big hills.


• Felix get married. The lady in question is still lovely.


• Flying fish.


• Dophins.


• An avalanche.


• Glow worms (alledgedly).


• Masses of primordial forest.


• Fjords.

... and lots of other stuff. It's been a busy fortnight.

New Zealand really is a very long way away. It takes forever to get there. And back.

welcome back ! ooh, lots of cool stuff... hope you didn't see the avalanche from too close up !

are dophins related to dolphins at all ? ;p

No, dophins are something to do with the erstwhile rulers of France. Big, aquatic mammals, though. And the avalanche was far enough away to be "oooh" rather than "aaaargh!".

Ah, well, the avalanche that was there when I was visiting the place in this photo was more "Er, where is it? Oh. Is that what an avalanche looks like then?"

Erstwhile rulers-to-be of France are related to big aquatic mammals, though, on account of the title having come from a coat of arms. What none of them are, is spelt "dophin"...

You know, it's almost like I knew that but was trying to get myself out of a speling-misstake hole :)
