South of the North



After our sky dives we left the land of adventures, and made the journey south to 'Windy' Wellington, stopping to wander around the Huka Falls and taking the Desert road through some impressive mountain scenery (although South Islanders might disagree!).

Wellington itself was a pleasure, lots of lovely cafes and restaurant, until it started to rain...hard! We were staying in the beautiful home of friends of the family, and camped out in their cosy, centrally heated home until it stopped - by which time half of the hill behind their house seemed to have slipped onto their cars pushing them into the building. Luckily we left before the house started falling down!
