Mountain view

Hard to choose one image to depict the beauty of the south island mountains so hope this gives you some idea of the scenery we have to endure as we pass through in our mobile home/bus! Sometimes hard to get the boys to take their eyes off their Nintendo DSi and look out of the window even with this sort of scenery! Today it is snowing outside so they are playing computer games in the local library and helping the librarian get the different games running as she knows nothing about how to delete old files etc! When they are finished we will head back across the road and go back to the hot springs for a couple of hours and if we get there before 6pm they can play on the flumes. Think that Oscar has recovered from head long fall out of one of the flumes this morning thanks to an exceedingly huge chocolate eclair (Alfie had an enormous custard, cream and blueberry puff) so time to enjoy the steam with snowflakes falling around our heads!
