Beautiful Places

Queen Elizabeth Park – Paekakariki

Ok, so we live an odd 40km’s from Wellington City, out in the hills. The small town below us is Paekakariki. The beaches are long stretches of sand with some of the most awesome sunsets as it goes down over the silhouettes of the northern tip of the South Island. The following set of images are from the QE park when we celebrated Niel’s first B-day in New Zealand… There's a lookout point and hiking trails that can be taken along the beach or a bit more inland. It's amazingly clean and beautifull. The toilet facilities are also clean and comes complete with toilet paper and hand dryers!!!!! Where in SA I ask you???!!!! :-)
