Jacob's New Zealand Pictures

Somebody surfing at Orewa, about 30 minutes north of Auckland on the east coast. One of the guys there said it's only like this 3-4 times a year at this spot, since it's so protected by those islands in the distance.



Me in front of Huka Falls, at the start of the Waikato river just outside of Taupo. The Waikato is the biggest river in New Zealand



The Turoa ski area on the side of Mt Ruapehu.



My 1978 Mitsubishi Galant in the parking garage of the dorm I lived in



The view out of my window



Downtown Auckland.



There was a hot springs bubbling only about 10 feet from this campsite!



This is the Maori village of Whakawerewa



Guess they shouldn't have built the town on top of a geothermal vent!



A lake in the mountains just outside of Rotorua



Hiking on Waiheke Island
