    New Zealand's South Island comprises nearly 60% of the country's land mass, but less than 40% of Kiwis call it home.  It is an absolutely and breath-takingly beautiful place!  In "NZ South Island Part 3" you will find pictures from the central part of the South Island, including Christchurch and the Fox and Franz-Josef Glaciers.
   Check out our other South Island pages.  In our "NZ South Island Pt. 1 web page" you will find pictures from the northern part of the South Island, including the Cook Strait and Kaikoura.  In our "NZ South Island Pt. 2 web page" you will find pictures from the Westcoast region and Abel Tasman National Park.  In our "NZ South Island Pt. 4 web page" you will find pictures from Fiordland National Park and Milford Sound.  Lastly, in our "NZ South Island Pt. 5 web page" you will find pictures from Dunedin and Queenstown.
   NOTE:  Please be aware that as a result of all the pictures, these pages will take a little more time to load than usual, so please be patient.  We believe that you will find the wait worth your while because the scenery "Down Under" is simply incredible!  We hope you enjoy this cyber-trip.
