Hello and welcome once again to a very cold and windy New Zealand. We were in Wellington for 2 nights and it sure did live up to its name! Oh dear me! All it did, was rain and blow freezing cold gail force winds at us, which surprisingly, was not very welcoming!!
It was the first time in a while, that Andy and myself could actually enjoy a lyin so without a doubt, took full advantage of that, along with all the other bus load of cool people that we met!
Im aware, that it was very uncultured of Andy and I but actually leaving the hostel due to the weather became very unappealing as it became apparent to evreybody else in Wellington as i looked out the window on a saturday afternoon and the streets were deserted!
That night, after not being able to leave the hostel due to "The Day After Tomorrow" style weather, we decided to have our own hotel party in the oppposite room. Which actually, after several hours of playing card games and drinking boxed wine, seemed like a fantastic idea!!
However, after obviously regretting that idea the following morning, we ventured out of sunny Wellington to the South Island! WE WANT SNOW!!!! Jack and Andrew xx
