    Windy Wellington!

    March 22, 2025 in New Zealand ⋅ 🌬 15 °C

    The southern most capital city in the world, named after the Duke of Wellington, known as windy Wellington, it certainly lived up to its name today!!
    We had a bus tour around the city, including the old parliament building which is apparently the 2nd largest wooden structure in the world. Lots of great looking buildings, a busy port & harbour, we were taken to the top of the Wellington Cable car ride, then to Mount Victoria for great views across the city.
    Bit cloudier & very windy today, ended the day with 14oz steak & a free bottle of wine!! 🙌😉    Read more
