Burkes Pass

I had a mini-break to Tekapo this weekend and it was a stunning destination with snow right down to the ground – making everything look like a winter fairyland (I’ll post photos this week sometime). On the way back to Christchurch I decided I absolutely had to have a coffee stop at Burkes Pass to check out the vintage cars and the shop there (I came home with a few things!). This place is a photographer’s dream – especially with the snow on the vehicles.

This four-month old kitten followed me around having lots of fun in the snow.

    Absolutely mint! Stumbling upon this marvelous place at the right time like this, and having your camera with you, plus warm coffee too — it’s kinda like accidentally winning the lotto without any hint of forewarning! Yes, you’re awake, Michele, it’s real 🙂

      I live for places like these. Would you believe I just used my phone for the photos. Google did the enhancements.
