Wellington Botanic Garden

We used our free afternoon to ride the Wellington Cable Car up the hill to the Botanic Garden and the Bolton Street Cemetery.

Daniel Reeve in Wellington

Meeting the calligrapher, cartographer, and artist Daniel Reeve was a highlight of our tour.

Wētā Workshop was another of the promised tour visits that I had been looking forward to since I booked this trip!

Mt. Victoria is a beautiful park close to film studios in Wellington and thus a covenient setting for several scenes from Lord of the Rings.
