Tongariro Alpine Crossing

Soooo --- I'm way behind, probably about two weeks behind.  So I think to catch up quick, I'm going to let the pictures do the talking with just brief explanations!

About 2 weeks age we were in Tongariro National Park on the North Island (for those Lord of th Ring fans - Mt. Doom is there!)  We went on an incredible hike - 8 hours and we saw the most amazing things!!!

 Not on the same hike, but the sunrise on a shorter walk, see the pink glow? That was way in the distance!

Drawing while sitting along side a road (watercolor and colored pencil).  P.s. We has some snow too! On the mountains of course......
