Wellington is the capital city of New Zealand. Start our tour around the city at 10:30 after breakfast. Had Maggi for breakfast as we missed dinner the night before. Went on a cable car ride to the Botanical garden. The cable car was one of the oldest Welli’s attraction, the one and only cable car in New Zealand. Went around the botanical garden and then, went back to the city. 

Wellington was fabulous man!~ Great place to do shopping. Lotsa shoe shops, kewl high-heeled boots. We walked along the Lambton Quay. Had a few pic snapped in front of the Beehives which is the new parliament building. And also the old parliament building which is now is more known as the Law school at Victoria Uni of Wellington.The building is the second largest wooden building in the world. Had a window shopping at Old Bank Arcade, a place full with designers’ boutiques. Expensives and unaffordable.
 
Then, we went to the famous national museum in New Zealand, Te Papa Museum. Te Papa means, ‘Our Place’ in Maori. Quite interesting stuffs inside which at first I thought would be a boring one. Had a chance to watch a Maori dance show and also Haka, the Warrior dance. Before going back to our place, make our way to the Wellington market. Tourist place of attraction, but giler expensive stuffs in it.

Well, by the fact that it was our last stop before going back to Christchurch, we had went to New World super market buying food for dinner to celebrate our success. At that time, really felt like eating ‘good’ food. Everything looks so delicious and nice. Bought some snacks too with some fruit drinks. At night, we were so happy that we’re finally leaving Welli for Christchurch the next day. We’re almost at the end of our trip!
