Holiday pics: Vintage cars and Huka Falls

First lot of holiday pictures--a month after I came back, but I've been so busy at work.

.
Seen in Cambridge on the way down: a 1933 Packard Super 8 Vic Coupe.


A 1928 Packard , also a perfect thing of beauty. It had a trunk on the back. Behind it is the converted church now containing a very good souvenir shop and a cafe we ate at.


Our apartment in The Village, this year a ground floor one. On the way, we also saw two Lotus 7s like the one the Prisoner drove (one even being yellow!) so there must have been a vintage car rally somewhere. Very appropriate, considering where we were staying.


Huka Falls. Yes, the water is that colour: a clear turquoise because of its purity. The yellow flowers reminded me of the ones in 'Killer' which Vila and Avon rise from. :-)


The rapids after Huka Falls, facing down river.
