On Sunday, March 2, 2014 the first of our 6 weeks of house guests arrived in Wellington, Kat and Bryan. They are here for 12 days and plan to visit both islands on their own, as well as share some activities with us. Between March 2 and March 7, Kat and Bryan had fun visiting the Wellington Zoo and the WETA Cave and touring the South Island which included the ferry ride over from Wellington; visiting fur seals up-close; and swimming with the dolphins. Visiting the Shire set where LOTR was filmed is a major priority soon. We're looking forward to seeing pictures from that trip as we plan to do it later. The Shire set is close to 6 hours away by vehicle.
