A few years ago our youngest daughter and her husband had a small restaurant and motel at Fruitlands, just out of Alexandra, in the middle, lower part of the South Island.

One of the visits we did was during winter when my wife went into the falling snow for the first time in her life.

Except for all the snow, it looks like a place I'd like to hang out at.

It is very seenic, like you I think it is better in spring or autumn, in summer it gets to 30 +.

It looks amazing! I love the trees during this time of the year :)

It was pretty cold on the fingers as well
