Wellington, New Zealand

After a luxurious couples massage by two of the best masseuses we have ever had, we took the lift into the capital of New Zealand, Wellington.  There we took the Cable Car to the top of the a San Francisco type hill and made our way back down through the Wellington Botanical Gardens.  It was about 59 degrees and windy.  (It is called the Windy City here.)  The sun was out and it felt quite pleasant.

Upon our return, we played backgammon and had coffee and dessert on board the ship overlooking the harbor.  Rob won every time.

  3. Those gardens do look inviting. It is difficult to be sure but the gardens look like they are quite large.
