New Zealand - Mt Egmont / Taranaki by Mark Sukhija

New Zealand - Mt Egmont / Taranaki

Yesterday we had quite a snowfall in Taranaki - on the northern island of New Zealand

Thankfully today we have blue skies - and the sun is radiant. Apparently this was the biggest snowfall in Taranaki in 25 years - with several inches falling in the garden. The farmland around Taranaki was coated with beautiful snow. Add a dose of a blue skies and sunshine - and what more could you ask for?
