Pupu Springs

---

Here I am again,

This day was not a biggie. So I'll combine it with yesterday's.

We drove about 250 km (150 mi) that took quite a long time.

Not as attractive as I had hoped but I did get a few pictures.

Today we went the the other direction. it was steep and curves.

Up an down. I cannot pronounce the place we went nor can I

spell it. W___________pupu Springs. No, it's not what you think!

It is claimed to be the purist spring in the Southern Hemisphere.

Pushing up 257,000,000 gal. In a 24 hour period.

Quite remarkable. We have moved to amother house for the next

3 nights. (Long story) Very nice, I will send pictures.

Is Christmas really coming?

Well, merry Christmas , We will be in Wanaka, NZ over the holiday.

Nobody home.

As ever

Lowell

Gorgeous!
That water is so beautiful! Aren't you ready to come home yet? Had snow over the weekend and more on the way tomorrow. Soak up that warm sun. Love and hugs to you both. E

Totally awesome
Maybe we should all move onto one of those vacated islands and start our own country. You can even be president Lowell. (Naturally, Gloria will have the final say). No problem. Anyway, it all sure looks fantastic.

Wanaka
We went yo Wanaka when we were in New Zealand. Jerry's hunting guide was Gary Herbert who lives in Wanaka. It's very beautiful there. You can see his hunting lodge on [e-mail] We are having the family over on Christmas Eve. Blessings to you. Love, Judy

Didn\'t know water still came in that color! And you\'re right in your thoughts of what \"pupu\" brought to mind. :) May you have a blessed Christmas in NZ....
