Selina´s Travels
Left Napier for Wellington on the 19th via Palmerston North and Masterson and arrived in the evening.
While Beth and Ellie sorted the room, Rita and i drove around and around and around Wellington's one way street system trying to find a place to park the car. Eventually, drowned by the rain, we arrived back at the hostel just in time for dinner :)
Weds 20th - Today we went sightseeing in Wellington City which was fun. After a walk round the shops (just window shopping unfortunately!) we decided to go on the cable car up to the botanical gardens. We walked around the gardens which were nice and also had a look in the cable car museum. After lunch and internet, went back to the hostel for out night out.
We met Nina (a girl who was skydiving with us, who is currently living in Wellington) and friends in Kitty O'Sheas and then headed down Courtner place to a couple more bars. After a few shots and my magical ability to score free drinks for the whole group, we ended up in shooters dancing the night away!
Today - Woke up at noon and had a really bad headache. Figured that we couldn;t really do anything energetic so we went for lunch and then decided to do essential internet thiongs all day...
Until...somebody told me there was a Lord of the Rings exhibition on at the museum so i naturally 'ran' there for an afternoon on my own with 'the precious'!
unfortunately the exhibition had ended a week earlier so i just spent time in the museum which i have to say is one of the best museums i've ever been to and the best part was...it was free!!
Went back to the hostel to chill for the evening and pack for the ferry to the South Island tomorrow!
