Wellington March 09


A couple of days in Wellington allowed us to see the Monet Exhibition, Parliament, Karori Wildlfe Park and was half paid for by Flybuys and Air Miles. Here's our Air NZ 737 in Auckland and a view of Mt Egmont.


We stayed at the Quality Hotel, located at the scruffy end of Cuba St and lacking air-con & ventilation. Nice view, though, from the 7th floor. The night shot picked up the TV reflection.




We enjoyed checking out some Wellington spots, here's a few pictures from the balcony of Molly Malones. Why do the trolley bus lines say Frog 15km? Why is there a rowboat by the traffic lights? Why did a man come up to me and ask if I was the More FM Fugitive?






The Karori Wildlife Park was just great, good views of Kakas, Saddlebacks and N.Island Robin that was hopping around our feet. As well as all the more usual Tui, Bellbirds, Waxeyes, Grey Warblers and more.

Heading homewards we flew Pacific Blue 737-800. Nice plane and lots of legroom.

Great photos, looks as though you had a great time. More FM Fugitive! LOL. Does your camera have a stitch function on it. Mine does and I can join panorama shots and have no lines where they join. It's pretty cool.
