Wellington

As we drove into Wellington we got great views across the Harbour. We had a while until we met up with Kris's friend so we headed into and found a good parking spot. Unfortunately someone had put scaffolding behind the van and Kris reversed and contact was made and put a dent in the bumper!! Oh dear :(

That evening we ate pizza and caught up with Brett and Andrea

Enjoying the luxury of Bretts house it took us a while to get out the next day! When we did we went to the museum and took a ride to the top of the hill in the tram. The weather wasn't great so we couldn't do that much.

In the evening we went to a Welsh pub which smelt badly(!) and didn't have Welsh beer, but we were told it was on order (no good for us!). We had an amazing meal and a few drinks. At 1.30am reality hit as Brett and Andrea had work and we had to catch our ferry to the south island! Thanks to Brett and Andrea for their amazing hospitality.

We made the ferry despite the k of signs and was a pretty smooth ferry ride across the channel. The scenery was good but it was raining and cold so we watched tele instead!!
