Blown away by Wellington

After a great Friday night out in "Windy" Wellington, we (I'm with an Austrian girl who has also got off the bus trip) were feeling a little worse for wear yesterday but still made it round all 6 floors of the national museum (Tae Papa - or something like that). It was very big and very good. Wellington is possibly the windiest place I have ever been!

We went on the ferry to the South Island in the evening and were both hoping for a little sleep but the views were so magnificent that we spent the whole time running about taking photos. Karin took over 100 - I held back and took a mere 50!

I'm off to Abel Tasmin national park for a couple of days. May do a skydive but once again it depends on the weather.

I won't be in touch for a little while as once again I'm sleeping in tents etc.

Keep safe,
