Default My trip to see Bernz in Wellington NZ...set 2

The next stop on our trip was Gravity Canon...unfortunately there wasn't anyone keen enough to bungy jump (the North Islands highest bridge jump of 80 metres) or go on the flying fox (launched from the 175 metre high ledge above the river) as it was really windy but the sight was still impressive.

Gravity Canon, NZ

Some more of NZs scenery.

Well if I was there, I wouldn't have done the jump either, but I bet it was awesome to watch. Your scenery is just breathtaking Angela and how well you have captured it. New Zealand is a wonderful place and I love seeing all the photographs. Can't wait for more from your trip. Thanks again for sharing them.

Dave.

Now that would be a shot, however, in the absence of the brave, your set is picture perfect, the scenary is breathtaking and you've captured it beautifully, I think you and Bernz had a great photoshoot

Well Angela you are promoting New Zealand well along with our Prime Minister in New York with Mr Letterman show the other night. NZ Tourism would be proud of you.

Just to let you all know that these shots were taken before Angela arrived in Wellington and I agree with you all in that she has captured some spectacular shots here. Can't wait to see the next sets. Well done Angela. Cheers Bernz
