Craigieburn road, New Zealand, that is

Making prints. This is Craigieburn Road in New Zealand, just past Arthur’s Pass.

Then you find out there is also a place with that unlikely name, Craigieburn, in Australia.

Factoid. The Interweb tells me that the name Craigieburn originates from Scotland. It combines two Scottish words: “craigie,” meaning rocky or craggy, and “burn,” meaning stream or creek. Scottish settlers most likely applied the names of the places in New Zealand and Australia.
