Kia ora and welcome to this edition of The Old Times. Isn't the above photo incredible! This was taken whilst on our boat ride to see the whales in Kaikoura. To me it looks like this Dusky Dolphin has it's own aura; something mythical and absolutely magical about it. As the world waits with baited breath for the results of the US elections next week, let's remember how fortunate we are to live at the 'bottom of the world', in our own stunning Aotearoa, and live each day to the fullest. Best wishes

Leading into the campaign, MDNZ launched a photographic competition asking people to enter their photo of their most "Beautiful New Zealand View". The competition was publicised through NZ Herald Travel supplement, through Facebook and Instagram, and we received an amazing 503 entries. Photos were shortlisted by the judging panel which included actress and TV presenter Shavaughn Ruakere, landscape photographer Rach Stewart and nutritionist Claire Turnbull, before being put to a public vote to find the top ten.
During Awareness Week, look out for the top ten photographs that will appear on billboards in Auckland, Hamilton, Wellington and Christchurch. They will also be promoted in newspapers, online news sites, MDNZ Viewpoint newsletter, Facebook and Instragram. To see more pictures, click here
