Where were you? Near Dunedin? I heard they got some snow today.
The weather is pretty crazy here at the moment, snow in November? Aparently we are heading into a pretty stinking hot summer too.

Great pics! What's it like driving the Ford in those conditions? I have a friend in Sth Isl NZ who drives a Subaru for those snowy conditions.
