Last of our NZ holiday 2014 snaps......


Relaxing on the Steam Train travelling along the Taieri Gorge Railway ...
there was a coffee shop on the train but no photos.... forgot.


We were able to get off the train for a casual walk over this bridge and then watch the train come across,
very interesting  stories by the train manager.





A very enjoyable day.
The journey started here at the beautiful train station in Dunedin.
I had to take the photo in 3 stages as it is soooo big..... stunning.




We then went on to Cromwell a very pretty town.



My friend Jo lives here so we were able to have a fantastic visit with her..... I enjoyed this so much.....
Jo took us on a trip around the area, it was great to spend the day with her.

Thanks so much Jo for having us in your home and showing us the sites of Cromwell.


Queenstown was our next stop..... the place for extreme sports.....
No we didn't do anything too exciting ....


We did take a trip on the TSS Earnslaw Vintage Steamship.... very nice and once again relaxing for us.



Yep I found another coffee shop..... on board and it was yum.





Our hire car....Corolla..... and it went like a dream for the 10 days.


Well I think that will do for today but there will be more.....
