Wellington, New Zealand

Wellington

Heute morgen ging es so weiter, wie es nachts begonnen hatte: stürmisch, kalt und regnerisch. Unser Camper wurde vom Wind leicht geschüttelt - vielleicht hätten wir doch nicht direkt an der Küste parken sollen? Die Fahrt nach Wellington dauerte nur noch 30 Minuten. Dort Waren wir (fast)...

And onto the North Island

Drove the 10kms to Picton before going to the harbour for a shower, and then a coffee followed by checking in to the Ferry bound for Wellington. It was a huge Ferry with lots of comfy seats to relax in for the 3 hour journey which we soon camped out in before waving goodbye to the...

The North Island

We spent our first day in Wellington just wandering, stopping off at the Te Papa Museum for a few hours & then we caught the cable car up to Wellington Botanic Gardens with its magnificent lookout over the City and harbour. But to be honest we thought it was a bit of a weird city? It wasn't as...

Beautiful City

Wellington is a beautiful, hilly city that surrounds a lovely bay. It is like a mini San Francisco with lots of hills and steep streets. It's very near a fault line and has about 360 earthquakes per year, mostly quite small. There are qutie a few houses built on the side of hills not...

Neuseeland

Ein Monat ist nun um seitdem ich Sydney verlassen habe. Geplantes Flugdatum war der 5.1.2011, doch Pacific Blue liess mich tatsaechlich zwei Mal nicht fliegen, weil etwas mit meinem Reisepass nicht gestimmt hat. Ein simpler Anruf zur Behoerde haette das Problem in 5 Minuten loesen koennen. Doch...

Sweet as bro!

We were a little dazed and confused at first to be in the big, modern city of Auckland but were overjoyed that we could actually understand people properly. We definitely made the most of our time here (despite lazy travellers telling us Auckland is boring) by venturing round the city (Sky...

Hollywood baby!

On our journeys from Mejico to New Zealand, we had an LA stopover and we decided to use this time wisely....by hitting up Hollywood baby!!! Despite the rain (isn't California supposed to be the sunshine state!?!) we got involved in all the mandatory tourist attractions (Hollywood sign, Walk of...

meaderings in Wellington

I'm not that keen on cities, but Wellington being so big (on a NZ-scale of big, obviously) means there's lots do over the four days I have there. The Te Papa museum, just down the road from the hostel, is a massive, very interactive museum, with exhibits on everything from the geological...
