On Sunday, we spent a lazy day in Wellington. It was rainy for most of the day. We spent 
several hours at the museum Te Papa, which, according to Poker O'Carra's brother Colm, is the best in NZ. It was quite impressive and had a lot of exhibits on NZ's history, natives, culture and animals. I've just asked Alan how to decribe the museum in a way that would convey its impressiveness and he said "you could jump on stuff and crank stuff." To translate, the museum had a great exhibition on the frequent earthquakes and other constant volcanic activity that allowed you feel an earthquake and create fault lines on a display.

All this eating out in New Zealand is starting to get to me. They don't seem to have a lot of healthy food here. I've been eating more than my fair share of fries, breads and fried meats. I need a carrot! -- Kelly
