Capital City of NZ. Seems small to me but it's veryque. It's also very windy, it doesn't stop, gets quite cold after a while. We did the tour of parliament house which was very entertaining, try and get Sue as a guide, she's very funny, the tour is free. We went up on the cable car which is OK, the view from the top is good. We also went to Te Papa, the new'ish museum of New Zealand, very good but, as with every other large museum, your brain goes numb before you've seen half of it.

Accommodation - Hutt Park, Lower Hutt. The people are very helpful but the toilets and showers are rubbish.
