Wellington Bed and Breakfasts - Reviews and Rates

Hi all,

Well after our last installment we took a daytrip to Milford Sound, this is a parting in the mountains where you take a cruise out to the Tasman Sea, past vast waterfalls and huge mountains. The scenery is amazing, we even saw a penguin and seals bathing on the rocks. It was a lovely day for it too suprisingly, very hot even thoug...

The drive down to Wellington was beautiful but we were exhausted from Jet Lag and hiking so we were ready to pass out by the time we finally got there. The next morning we woke up and met a couple from Europe who were taking a similar route as us with their space ship. The guys name was Sam and he was a 24 yr old from the UK. I am not sure was h...

I thought China had it problems, what with female infanticide a sure way of reducing the population ratio, so you get more men than women. Maybe they could send some to New Zealand. . . Come hither, men - Tourism NZ uses 'man drought' as drawcard Forget about extravagant ad campaigns marketing New Zealand with images of lush bush, beautiful beac...

We made it through the longest layover in Sydney! Arrived in Wellington very late on Friday night where my darling cousin Shane was waiting to bring us to the hotel! We were very thankful as we were so wrecked after all the travelling and waiting around. We got to our hotel around 1 o'clock in the morning, only to find out it was situated in a r...

Well where to start this time - since I last wrote an entry (which I know was a while ago!) I have covered a very large section of the North Island, thrown myself out of a plane and celebrated christmas! After leaving Auckland I travelled east and up a bit to the Coromandel Peninsula, staying in a few towns while I was up there, Thames, Coromand...

Christmas morning brought an absolute downpour. After everyone awoke and shook off their hangovers, we continued to open the remaining presents. Our Christmas morning movie was The Shawshank Redemption, an interesting choice for the day. The rain continued unabated and threatened to cancel our Christmas Day barbecue. In a bit of swamp engineerin...

This week has been boring for the most part. I walk around town and read a lot, drinking at night with the staff. Recently however, Boz (one of the bartenders) said I could crash at his place and he will stay at the hostel so I can save some money. He gets a major discount. So I took him up on his offer. Yesterday I finally did a touristy thing,...

Right, time for you land lubbers to be updated on our quest for world domination. Hanmer springs was the last entry so ill try and speed you all through what we have done in the last few days. We departed Hamnner on the 27th and drove through the rain to a place called Nelson in the North of the South Island. The drive took us about four hours a...

We've spent the last few days in Wellington which is a very beautiful city. What LUXURY! Tim and I actually have our own bedroom here with a DOUBLE BED AND QUILT! It's heaven after sleeping in the car or tent for a few days. We're staying with Dave and his flatmates on top of the pub 'Murphy's Law' where many a beer was drunk by the boys, watchi...

Hey there sports fans! Well, things have changed dramatically since our last broadcast. Myself and the young lad have decided enough is enough and we are movin' on. Marty jacked his job in on Tuesday or Wednesday as the position just didn't suit and I handed in my notice (aka "I'm outta here fools") today (Friday 27/04/06). We have been working ...
