Ticked off one of the to-do list items (photo of the pillbox in 24-Eyes Tower) on a recent visit, and also added more photos of 24-Eyes Tower.

Here's a collection of photos from various visits to the Gubeikou ‘Panlongshan’ Great Wall in northeast Beijing, a couple from a first visit in 2007 and then a whole lot more from subsequent hikes and visits. (Picked a few photos here, link to the full collection coming later)

In the NZ trip photos there were a few from the Tongariro Alpine Crossing, a 20km hike that crosses the volcanic craters between the peaks of Mt. Ngauruhoe and Mt. Tongariro.

You want to see more of those photos?

There's a full post, 80 photos and the usual 'light commentary'.

If you’ve ever thought “I would love to see some photos from New Zealand locations such as Auckland, Tauranga, and Ohakune, and it would be perfect if there was some light commentary to go with the photos”, I have some *great* news for you.
