The mountain views are (semi) divine

[eggs]

Top Forks Hut?

[Walk_fat boy_walk]

Top Forks Hut?

Correct

[eggs]

That would be high on a list of where to go in NZ.
Another peak in NZ - bonus for my location

Aoraki/Mt Cook from Mueller Hut

[eggs]

Yes John - still waiting for it to get dark enough for the stars, but we gave up. Getting too late.

Staying in NZ. Lot of zoom here, I was observing this summit from a much less precipitous spot:

Summit of Mt Sefton, Aoraki/Mt Cook NP via Twizel, Canterbury New Zealand

I'll back off the zoom for more context, NZ:

Looks stunning. I'll keep the NZ theme going:

Church of the Good Shepherd?

Church of the Good Shepherd?

Good enough eggs. I was only looking for Lake Tekapo, but yes I'm near the church and you can see the shadow of the dog sculpture in the foreground.

I had a shot with that part of the range at back.

Staying in NZ.

The island is an old volcano

[johnw]

Rangitoto Island, I'm guessing from what appears to be one of several lookout points around Auckland?
Maybe the military one (Maungauika/North Head Historic Reserve)?

[eggs]

Yes - North Head - you can see the gun emplacements down the side

[johnw]

I'll try another novelty entry. Where did I "land" this 737 in NZ:

I guess the main clue is across the road.

[Last]

Have you landed in Christchurch? At the Canterbury Museum? Must have been tight to land there.

Yes Last. I landed across the road and shoehorned it in between the museum and the botanic gardens.

Some context, a 75th anniversary display by Air New Zealand:

Thanks John, I thought the church looked familiar. Have they repaired it? Next. Europe.

If you mean the cathedral they still had scaffolding around it in 2017 when we visited. From memory there was some reason why repairs weren't proceeding.
Much of the city was a giant demolition/construction site then. If you wanted a job it was almost just grab a hard hat and get started.

Flåm, Norway?
