Day 6. Here we have a New Zealand traffic jam and some more shots of the pinnacles which I posted a couple of pics of a couple months ago in the picture thread. This was the location for the Dimholt Road in Return of the King.

It's been a while but now i have a quicker internet so Day 7 Wellington!
To start The city itself, followed by a place where you should watch out for falling hobbits. (It's just on the edge of farmer Maggots farm) Then, oh no! Get off the road!! *dynamic zoom*
Next Insert a nazghoul on horseback above us and a big tree root and don't tell anyone! Shh! were hiding. Then the photo op of all photo ops. Do your best Legolas pose at the tree. It was not actually featured in the film but the well know pic of Bloom next to the tree was here, and not but a few yards from... Rivendell! Yes the public park in which it was shot is more than happy to let you know where it was. But the park in the following pics is not such a braggart. Maybe because it had such a horrible death scene. The gardens of Isengard.

That is hilarious! They didn't even bother to make it look like natural wood.

The forest pics are very cool. Weird looking trees.

Oh, and good to hear about this, I'm still working out a few issues on my new system but all my D2 chars are now updated as of this morning.

Day 8 Picton. Through the bay and out across the sea to the south island leaving Wellington behind. The second photo is on the approach to the south island. If you notice the two white pyramids on the land, those are channel markers. When you see those lined up on top of each other then you know you are heading down the middle of the channel. And here is lovely Picton, our first stop on the south island where we spent the whole day uhm, appreciating, the local agriculture.
