We also saw the Bee Hive, a Bear shop and the Train Station.

We went back at about 2 0’clock.

Tired but very happy.

We really had a good time in Wellington.

Wellington, an awesome visit no 2

Thursday morning I parked my car at the Upper Hutt station and

we went into Wellington by train.

A whole group of International students also joined us on the train.

They were not interested in visiting museums and art galleries.

They just enjoyed the  ice skating.

On the way to the Civic center.

My student and I at first went to the

City Gallery in Civic Square.

I took the following photos of the square.

WE enjoyed the City Gallery although my student is not that much interested in art.

We also visited the

Museum of Wellington City and sea.

This was very interesting.

This museum is ranked as one of the 50 best museums in the world by The Times of London.

It takes you back a thousand years and leads you to a vibrant present day Wellington.

Wellington, an awesome visit no1

It has been another busy week in the

Scrapydo camp.

We (that is my student and I) went on some

School Activities on Thursday!

The International students had to visit at least 5 interesting places in and around Wellington.

The week between the two long weekend was horrible weather wise.

Wednesday and Thursday were two better days.

Wednesday we went to the beach at Petone.

We first visited the Learning Connection.

A place where you can do anything crafty.

We met a dog there and I had to taken photos of it.

It had one blue and one brown eye.

 Then we went on to the SEA!
