We left Wellington today, crossing the Cook Strait in fine weather. I wish I was having better luck at posting photos. Keep checking as I am sure to have it figured out soon.
We had a week long chilly time in Wellington with some great adventures. On a lark, we went to a soccer game and Wellington won aginst the Aussies. We also went to the new James Bond movie and the musical Evita. For day time activities, it was hard to beat the WW1 Memorial and Te Papa Museum, both with extraordinary exhibits created by Peter Jackson (Lord of the Rings, etc.)
Tomorrow we will take a ferry to the Queen Charlotte Walk trail head for the start of a 5 day trek along Marlborough Sound. The terrain is similar to Puget Sound but, honestly, even more gorgeous. While the days are long with up to 14 miles, we are staying a resorts with full services. More about all of that next time.
well good to hear you made it to the new James Bond movie LOL as you know big fan. It is raining cats and dogs here. I think I may need to purchase flood insurance. I shall keep checking in on your adventures. talk later, Debby D.
