NZ bridge

I don’t now if anyone has ever calculated the number of bridges per mile of road for countries but, if so, I’d bet that New Zealand is up near the top of that list. This is one of the first that we came across during this last trip to NZ. It set the tone for half of the rest of our pictures: bridge, river, trees, mountains.

and a zoom-in on the bridge itself.

Whoever lives in that house at the top has a hell of a climb down to their boat. Also, note the water level marks on the bridge pontoons!

Green bottles

No idea how these got here, whether all laid out by one person or if one person started it and others have followed.

Don’t know how to make it a better picture: maybe mask out the bottles and turn the rest of the shot b&w. Doesn’t really work like this.

Just thought a closer crop would look better:

Hmm, maybe.

Station mailboxes

Mailboxes by the side of the road for two New Zealand stations:

Maruia Springs

We stopped at Maruia Springs for coffee one day: great place (and good coffee).

Shot looking down from the cafe to the bath house and accommodation:

and another from there looking back up:

Looks a very relaxing place.
