We've just returned from a three-day weekend in Wellington, New Zealand's windy capital city. The weather was mainly sunny and the winds were mild most days. The first full afternoon in town was windy and so I was able to convince Garry that this really is New Zealand's windy capital. There's nothing like a horizon smothered in white caps and wind-blown water gusts to make your point.
We stayed in a hotel on Cuba Street, an area that's fast beginning Wellington's cafe and night life hotspot. We ate some superb Thai close to our hotel and were somewhat bemused by the antics of harmless weekend revelers. As you'd expect we took in all of the regular sights; the Kilburn Cable Car, Te Papa National Museum, the National Archives (where tattered copies of the Treaty of Whitangi can be found) and the spectacular Kapiti Coast.
