Welli, Welli, Welli...

I'm feeling a bit put to shame by all mum and dad's blogging activity especially as they're on the road but then I reckon that gives them more to talk about! What can I tell you? I'm very excited that I managed to download the 2nd episode of the new doctor who which I have just finished watching. Excellent stuff I must say - I guffawed loudly at 2 points in particular and got emotional at other points which is what I've come to expect from DW. Bravo. My flatmate Nicole, bless her, thought Dr Who was about a medical type doctor and when I explained what it was actually about she said - ah so nothing like ER then! I think the jury's still out on whether she liked it or not - we'll see what happens after the next few episodes.
Other than that excitement, life is not giving me much to report of note. We've been blessed with more good weather the last two days meaning two more lunch time trips to meander the Botanic Gardens and bask in the sun and scents of the earth. Here is a couple of pics of paths I found myself upon:

And some views of the city...

The second one is more for the benefit of previous Wellington residents - perhaps you can spy the Embassy amongst the buildings or the quarry face on Mt Vic where we did such scenes as 'He leaves because he must' and 'Young hobbits do not belong in war Master Meriadoc'...I promise you they're both there.

And last but not least a random photo for good measure taken this evening on my twilight walk round the point. It was a gloriously calm evening and the night was just calling to me when I stepped off the bus (plus Nicole was practising her belly dancing routine so I thought I'd give her space!).

It's now ten o'clock of the evening here so I'll be toddling off to bed shortly. I think we're planning on getting in a walk this weekend somewhere out of the city so hopefully there'll be some nice pics of that. Also we agreed a night on the town was in order so maybe Friday night will be the night for a trip to One Red Dog or the Hummingbird. Or both. xx
