Wellington New Zealand
designed to go up hill and also down hill!
Modern designed toilets for disabled people
Harbour design
Last but not the least
Wellington airport with its
runway in the sea!
The runway is at the back. It isn’t a road it is the runway!

Have a look at Jake’s Sunday Post for more information!
Had a beautiful approach to that airport when I was there last. The sun was glistening goldne on the snows of ?Mt Richmond on the south island as we turned in to land. Hope this year’s flight will be just as nice…..
It is sort of scary when you watch the aircraft coming in to land. The landing strip is short and the pilot has to know how to land! 🙂
Glad I didn’t know that before, although my cousin told me I was lucky with the weather when I arrived.
Council of Wellington wants to build longer way in the sea but at the moment money is a problem. Bigger air-crafts can’t use the runway because it is too short.
So the bigger aircraft fly in to Auckland?
Yes. I also know that bigger ones land at Sydney and then people come to NZ in the smaller crafts
Sjoe dis mooi! Net jammer van die reelings in die eerste foto
Ek is mal oor reelings! Dis hoekom die 2de foto dit nie het nie. Eerste een is my idee en tweede is hoe dit moet wees
Wellington was a total surprise to me with its modern and functional design and architecture. I loved it at first sight. Great to see it again through your photos. I didn’t know about the airport/runway!
It is modern and also gives a clean and welcoming impression. Yes they have some hassles with the short runway. Bigger air-crafts can’t really use it.
Wonderful photographs!
Thank you very much for compliment and visiting my blog! 🙂
Some interesting structures at the harbour front.
Yes there are, they try to keep people’s attention because every time I go there there is something extra or new!
I have to say, when I looked at your first shot I thought, “oh no, more skyscrapers”. But it just got better, and I definitely can see that Wellington would be a good place to live. Thanks for sharing some great photos and shouting up for your city. 🙂
There are not really “skyscrapers” here. It is a more “flat” city. It also isn’t as big as a metropolis we know. To me it is more like a big town!
A lovely one, by the looks! 🙂
Sure is! 🙂
Love those sea urchins in the harbour!
Me too, they look real! 🙂
Thanks for sharing photos of Wellington. I will get to New Zealand one day. It is on my “bucket list”.
You’re welcome. You are invited for a cuppa as they say it here! Hope to se you one day in NZ!:)
