Wellington
We arrived in Wellington right as a southerly storm (VERY strong Antarctic winds) pelted the Cook Strait. Deciding to overlook all suggestion to stay inside and museum hop, we ventured over the snow-capped Rimutaka Range to the Wairarapa, a region of forested hills and rivers that descends to Cape Palliser. Riding out the torrential rains and winds in the Putangirua Pinnacles was definitely an interesting (read: terrifying) experience - but ultimately worth it. When we returned to Wellington it was clear blue skies - the perfect weather to explore the city, and the beautiful bays and forests that surround it.
