The most beautiful city in NZ?<BR/><BR/>I'm a Wellington fan, in case you hadn't noticed. <BR/><BR/>Also, I'll be spending a couple of weeks based in boring old Auckland. Bloody family. (Although I have to admit that having family in Wellington would give me very mixed feelings about the place, so perhaps it's better this way.)Badaunthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13421084688117792172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20717535.post-20227677662978203772008-02-04T21:07:00.000+11:002008-02-04T21:07:00.000+11:00Yes, there was much talk of moonscapes and black h...Yes, there was much talk of moonscapes and black holes in our party too. <BR/><BR/>Unfortunately we aren't going anywhere near Wellington this trip. The only family I still have there (periodically) is my brother, and he is currently in a "living in Melbourne" phase.<BR/><BR/>Next stop for us is Christchurch, and then Arthur's Pass to be bridesmaid at a pagan wedding in a paddock.StyleyGeekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10287051608503966129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20717535.post-44354941489974638092008-02-04T20:49:00.000+11:002008-02-04T20:49:00.000+11:00Incidentally, how long are you there for?
