Have a look at this mountain. Would make quite a challenging ski area wouldn’t it? however due to its location that will never happen. South Pole.
I may have showed u this before cant remember.
So i spoke with the roving correspondent and he came through with the pictures of the location in New Zealand where some of Lord of the Rings was filmed.
This rocky dome is where Edoras was built. The realm of King Theoden, Rohan was the country, Edoras was its city.
This shows a pic of Eowin on the platform outside the Kings dwelling.
and the same view without the LOTR additions, the Southern Alps of New Zealand.
Ah, the roving correspondent is officially back in the States. If you have been following his progress he was at the south pole, and lately has been moving further and further north. Because if you leave the south pole, u pretty much have to. Go north that is.
If you look at the first picture u can see Diamond Head. It’s the peak of the volcano that formed the island. Though it doesn’t look very tall from the picture it is the island’s highest point. I have visited this island, it is totally awesome. I even surfed. You should too if u ever have the chance.
Well heres a few more shots from New Zealand. U might see this sight all over the US. I include it because i asked for pictures of whatever my correspondent was up to, and because this weather were having here is too cold too long. Pretty sure most people would like to be able to visit your local put put if u could.
Makes me want to go pro. Can u make it a living off mini golf?
If you happen to be lucky enough to visit Christchurch New Zealand, here’s a nice hotel for you to try out. My roving correspondent stays there and said the people there are great.
If you happen to stay there becuz u saw it here let me know.
Well here’s a few more shots from my roving correspondent. He had some lamb souvlaki from Dimitris food Wagon and said it was tasty.
This is a tram to help you get around Christchurch.
If you ever get to go there this sculpture is known as the chalice.

And here’s my favorite shot. This is the Avon river. Folks enjoy boat rides, kayaking or simply the view.
Thanks roving correspondent! Carry on!
