Windy Welly and The Crossing


Wellington was good to us and didn't live up to it's infamous name. The weather was actually quite beautiful with blue skies and not very much wind at all. From the two hours we had to explore the city, we found it to be a lovely seaside capital surrounded by dramatic hills and blue water.



Perfect blue sky in Wellington.





We hopped on a ferry for the three hour ride across the Cook Strait to Picton on the South Island. It was a scenic ride that took us through Wellington Harbor, across the strait, and into Queen Charlotte Sound.
