SNOW!!

Day 112 / 365

Hurray we finally found some snow!!  This was taken after we left a small town called Taupo and headed down the North Island towards Wellington.  It is the famous Mt Ruapehu and was the first sign of snow we had come across.

It was just before this photo was taken that we became aware that Miss A gets carsick.  I should have know because she can get sick from a swing let alone NZ roads that are somewhat windy and narrow compared to those in Australia!!  Sadly she threw up along the desert road just prior to this so we had to stop and try to clean her and the car with just a small pack of wet wipes!  The temperature seriously felt like it was sub zero degrees outside the car and the poor child had to be stripped and re dressed......ahh the joys of travelling with children.



Closer to Wellington we came across another classic Kiwi icon.......the Kiwi Loo.  Yes folks its a roadside toilet.  They have them in all different colours too.  Better than a bush I guess!!
