New Zealand

Dec. 22/99 to Jan. 9/00
Someone I met through TG Chat flew me down to meet him for this vacation. I haven't heard from him since.

Lake Taupo, largest lake in NZ, situated on 2 volcanoes--one extinct and one dormant. The water was so clear and silver it took my breath away. It was so unpolluted that even at a depth of 20' you could see the bottom.

Left; Sky Tower in Auckland, tallest tower in the Southern Hemisphere. Right; One Tree Hill.

The (as of yet uncontested) oldest kiwifruit trees in NZ.

Looking downstream at Aratia Dam, near Lake Taupo. The section of river at the bottom of the picture is created by water occassionally released through the dam.
