Te Papa

This morning we had a bit of a lie in then made plans for the next couple of days. We have booked a couple of nights in Taupo.

We then headed to Te Papa which is the national museum located in Wellington . Te Papa translates to container of treasures. The most interesting exhibit was called Gallipoli: The Scale Of Our War. This was the story about Gallipoli campaign in World War I through the eyes and words of 8 ordinary New Zealanders who found themselves in extraordinary circumstances. Below are some large life like sculptures of these people. You could see the veins, wounds on their body and sweat on their foreheads. The attention to detail was amazing.Okumaya devam et
