New Zealand skiing

The view from the Treble Cone ski field of Wanaka


Queenstown's lake Wakapitu from our motel room (Lomond Lodge - great place to stay)

Do not know what the blow-up doll mouth is all about


Clearly not a skiing pic - Mr Fleagle Huddard, lord and master of Bronte Beach, Sydney, who guarded us while housesitting for Sal and Ros in July. He broke our hearts.

Suitably pisted

Skiing in Queenstown - ain't the Alps (not much snow, short runs), but the mountain staff are super-friendly and helpful(ie not French). We allowed this pic to be taken on 2 August as consolation for the fact that we haven't been single for 9 years.
