And yes, the weather on these two separate days was atypical ;)

Feeling a bit punchy, flew out at approx 4am Australian time, which seems a long long time ago as we had to get up 2.5 hours before that to make sure we made the flight.

Bed soon I feel sleepy2.gif sleepy2.gif .

Hey Mick, Welcome Home, does that mean you'll be warming up the Honda soon???

Let me know when your heading out 8)

Hey the only photoshopping done on that pic was to reduce it in size! The cable car is about 50m to the left of where the photo was taken, which was in front of a restaurant at the cable car terminus. Here is the one from roughly the same point as the Wiki picture on Monday (mine is a different field of view):

The second one is one the way to a winery just out of a lovely little town called Martinborough.

Maybe tomorrow, see how it pans out with the kids. My partner is picking her daughter up, #2 son is off to his mums, and #1 daughter is off to a friend's...which leaves #1 son and his new xBox 360, so basically I can do what I like.
