Days in Wellington

So other than the wind here in Wellington this city is pretty cool, you go right out of the city onto the peninsulas and its so nice and beautiful there. November 5th was Guy Fawkes day and it was awesome. They do not ban any type of firework here. There were little kids setting them off and it a joke of the day to set fireworks off behind people and scare them. Also the firework show over he bay was spectacular. Other than that we spent a few days just driving around the city and outer city. Here are pictures....


Us about to go off roading to find a campsite...more of these when we do a post of the car

Wellington bay on a cloudy day

On our way to find another campsite right outside Wellington

Cool trees

Some definite cloud cover here


Sunset for that night

Bryan has almost tried everyone of these different flavored milks

For our San Diego friends...it extends all the way out here

Parts of Rivendell were filmed here and they put up a set on the side of the bank here

Legalos was filmed here talking to the other elves

Bryan had so much fun on this bridge

Really cool area where rivendell was partially filmed

Love the trees


This is the site where the battle of the orcs happend

This is where Gandolf rides into Isngard..Bryan is standing on a patch of fresh grass where the dirt path was in the movie

Bryan thought this pine tree was enormous

Kids setting off fireworks

And as you can see the cop does not care

Cool photo
