Last big snow?

One of the common questions/comments we've received during our farewell get-togethers has been about the weather in New Zealand. We are heading to the bottom of the South Island and are the same distance from the equator as North Bay is. That means that we do get some winter - but nothing like the winters here. I've been told that where we are, just outside of Gore, there will probably only be two snowfalls each winter that have any accumulation and that they will melt away in a couple of days. So it gets cold, just not as cold as here. I thought I would post a couple of pictures of the kids playing in the snow. Sammy is pretty sure that he is going to miss the snow. He loves the snow.
