Wellington

We spent a couple of nights in Wellington, the capital of New Zealand. I plugged the address of our AirBnB into Google maps and we headed to a place on Beach Ave. We couldn’t find the lock box as described. I open the gate and circle the house. It’s like we’re casing it! Then Leena checks the address and it’s an entirely different Beach Ave 20 minutes away. Ha ha. Imagine, multiple Beach Avenues in a coastal town.

So the actual place was great. It came with a turntable and a stellar vinyl collection.

We went up Mt Victoria for some lovely views of the city. One of the information signs said that the wind blew 30+ knots on 174 days a year. They had a cyclone come through just a week ago. On Wednesday? Totally calm.

We headed up a funicular to get a few more views.
