A few more photos from the other day

Got a few more here from Barrier Trip #2 that didn't make it onto my blog last time.


Hamilton city



Another of Hamilton City



Believe it or not the airport's there somewhere...



Somewhere near Hamilton



Definitely somewhere near Hamilton!

Nice photos mate.

Yes, I can see the airport [usually I find it hard to spot for some reason...]!

Did you see the Darth Vader hot air balloon? Now that was pretty cool :-)

Thanks Rodney... Yes, I did see Lord Vader at the balloons - I even took his photo - http://tinyurl.com/6l2h28

The believe it or not photo has the airport top middle of frame. We were on right base.

The somewhere near Hamilton photo is looking east towards Cambridge as we descend on right base and are about to turn finals for runway 18.

The definitely somewhere near Hamilton photo was taken as I turned left to join right base (hence the wing's banked position). Thats Waikato Hospital in centre frame and Mt Pirongia in the background.

Yeah, I didn't look too closely at that last photo, I'm getting lazy in my old age :)
