Bits from NZ

Fiona and I went to NZ for a few days to celebrate my birthday. It was a few days of art, nature and relaxation. Following are a few images from the trip away - not a lot of people photos.

    Joyful belated wishes on your birthday Barry. What a wonderful way to celebrate: nature, art and being together exploring it all. Photo of big wooden heart quite apt to honor you on your day.
