Waterworks


Much of New Zealand is powered by this Hydro-electric projct we saw on the way down South.

A dam forces a natural river down a a series of massive rapids to get power through turbines.

Seems a really clean way to get power, although this year they were getting really worried because of the lack of rain.

The water below this bridge was runnning faster and more violently than any river I've ever seen. Good job Pinar didn't fall in.
