New Zealand

This time we've got some pictures from New Zealand. The lucky person to be there is my older sister Kate. She took these photos in 2012.

Wellington - the capital city

Have you ever been here? Maybe you are a citizen of Wellington? Send us your photo! 

Wai-O-Tapu (Māori for "sacred waters")

 is an active geothermal area at the southern end of the Okataina Volcanic Centre

 It is a wonderful view, isn't it?

The Kawarau River drains Lake Wakatipu, in northwestern Otago, New Zealand. The Roaring Meg Hydro Scheme discharges into the Kawarau, and at times the lower station has been flooded by the river. A few hundred metres west of the station is a natural bridge where the river narrows to 1.2m wide, which was used as a crossing place by early goldminers. In the 19th century, gold was extracted from the river. Some of the miners' huts remain today, many of them close to thriving vineyards.

Last but not least: the Tekapo Lake.

Thanks Kate!
