Flying around the Fiordlands, 28 December 1998

On a day when storms over the Tasman Sea claimed the lives of several Australian sailors, we were flying from Queenstown to Te Anau to Milford and back to Queenstown. Worsening weather throughout the day made our flight rather .... Exciting. Theresa took many pictures with the regular camera, but Kate's death grip on Kent's hand kept him from taking very many photos. Once the scanner is working again, we'll get some of the prints uploaded, but in the meantime here are a few pictures of our day in flight.

Theresa loves this stuff, even if everyone in the back seat was shaking.

But I'm in the wrong seat!
