Sat 22.01.11: Tararua Forest to Wellington
Thismorning we took a 6km unmadeup track out of the forest and back to the S1 and headed towards Wellington. At the small seaside village of Paraparaumu we took a long coffee and paper reading break in a cafe overlooking the sea, an island and in the distance the tip of South isand.
We drove on to Wellington, and because it is ehe weekend benefited from the free parking outside the Botanic gardens. We spent lunch time and the afternoon wandering through the gardens, tasting their culinary delights and of course including the views over Wellingtonand the cable car
We are staying in the area Lower Hutt Valley, with forseted hills behind us and Wellinton Harbour in front of us, very pleasant.
Tomorrow we will spend some time in Wellington and then return to base to pack our things ready for the ferry to The South Island on Monday morning.
