New Zealand in Winter (Dunedin, Wanaka, Fiordland)

Dunedin is my home town where I went to school and university, my mum and stepdad lived there. So this was a quick visit to home in winter time. Most of the shots of Dunedin will be irrelevant unless you know my family or Dunedin itself but I recommend checking out any of the entries after that which suggest scenery, especially as we head towards the west coast. From Dunedin we went for a trip to Wanaka to go snowboarding and flew across in a small plane to Fjordland and Milford Sound. There are some beautiful shots of NZ scenery in there.
