Queensland is definitely the playground for the international tourists. It is full of excitement and buzz. And commercialism, MacDonalds and Starbucks. Everybody is waiting for the snow and the partying to begin in a month or so.

It was a pleasure to get away from rip off town to something more low key:

The eastern end of Routeburn Track was the destination. We wanted to explore it at both the eastern and western ends to see what it was like:

The track, which straddles both the Mount Aspiring and Fiordland National Parks, is very popular with bush walkers.

Thanks Cam
I'm having great trouble with the photography----its too contrasty and I cannot get the ground and the clouds using the digital camera. I'm finding it very frustrating.
