Wellington was the first spot we had identified as potential job hunting. We had ambitiously thought we would have interviews lined up all over the place! As this wasn't the case we spent time getting our portfolios printed, looking into job agencies and sightseeing. We went on the tram to the botanic gardens, to the 'beehive' parliament building, the art gallery and finally the Te Papa museum. The art gallery was exhibiting work by Kusama - an obsessive compulsive with dots all over the place, even on the outside of the building - very impressive. The Museum was a whole lot bigger than we expected, we were lost in there for hours and nearly late to meet old neighbours of Charlies. Wellington seemed like quite a happening city, and a windy one..
The ferry took us from Wellington to the south Island. It was a great introduction to the island going in through Charlotte Sound. Beautiful and very windy, we were nearly blown off the boat!
