Sightseeing

 Since returning to Wellington, I have had the opportunity to entertain visitors in our fair city. We have discovered a great little way to fill in six hours.


There is a half-hour trip on the ferry from downtown Wellington to Days Bay on the other side of the Harbour. After a couple of hours for a bush walk, swim and a meal, there is another ferry back to the central city.


A five minute walk puts us at the Cable Car, which wisks us out of the CBD to the top of the Botanical Garden. Nothing too strenuous.


From the top of  the Cable Car, there is a leisurely stroll down to the Rose Garden Cafe, when it is about time for another coffee.


Then there is a leisurely stroll through the historic cemetery and back to where we started.


All-and-all, it is about six hours.


Bye-the-way, in New Zealand we who 65 or over ride on the public transport for free!
