The Native New Zealand Trees
The trees and general look of the countryside are different in New Zealand. It might sound obvious, but as we were walking along the familiar footpath beside the sea, I was looking at tree shapes that would be totally unfamiliar back in the UK. There are the Pohutukawa Trees, some tall palm trees, large bamboo groves and the Norfolk island pine tree, which should interest Val, as she comes from Norfolk. (Oh dear, he should know Lowestoft is in Suffolk..)I bet she never realized it was an island though!
