Fantastic shots Fuzz.

And Chris, I like the Mall ones too. It is interesting that Malls look identical anywhere in the world.

Thank you all for the kind words. The scenery we saw last week was just phenomenal! And I say that having lived in the Colorado mountains for 11 years.

True. And not only are the store names also becoming the same in many places around the world, the mall names themselves too. In London, Westfield was a big shopping mall in west London. Once we moved here, we were looking up shops in Christchurch for some things, and stumbled upon a Westfield there as well.

#3 looks like a map of NZ in the water, and the top part looks like a kiwi too!

It does indeed. Even though the weather was a bit cloudy and rainy, it was still majestic.

Chris, gorgeous colours, especially on 1 and 3!
