Akaroa Harbor. We took a day trip about 1 1/2 hours East of Christchurch to this harbor, which was formed by a huge volcano erupting out into the Pacific. We took the pass out to the open water and got to swim with Hector dolphins (smallest and rarest dolphins in the world). Unfortunately my camera died as I was trying to get pictures of us with the dolphins. Scenic drive back from Akaroa Harbor
No, this is not the camera creating a rainbow. On our way to Akaroa we saw this rainbow, but more importantly we saw where the end of the rainbow touched down in this valley surrounded by mountains covered with more shades of green than the large box of crayons ever conceived. Definitely a first for me.






Disregard the wings ready for take off -- the end of the rainbow is the important point.
