Just got down to Wellington today and hopped off the bus onto another one - the LOTR tour bus! Was fantastic for my inner geek lol, went and visited various Rings related locations in Wellington, including the Weta Cave, part of Weta's complex in the city where they design and produce all their props and environments for movies!
Headed then to Victoria Peak where we checked out some of the places where they filmed in the movies - much fun! From there went to a lovely viewpoint and grabbed some nice photos of the city itself.
Been a long day and a tiring week, gonna be staying in Wellington for a few days to recharge - on the 1st of December shall be heading to the South Island, weee! Can't wait!

Gosh, it's hard to keep track, the photos keep coming so fast! We're not complaining, though. Who's the redhead?
I keep bumping into people who remind me that they have friends or relatives in NZ who'd be happy to put you up if need be. On Wednesday it was Ayliffe (Ruairi's mum) who we saw briefly at a performance of an opera by students from Warwick (including Ruairi's girlfriend - Ruairi himself wasn't involved in this production). Anyway Ayliffe has a brother in NZ and if you're interested I'll find out where he lives.
Love
Dad
