What a surprise after our bike ride. Mark took us to the site where several of the scenes in LOTR were filmed depicting the Elvish village of Rivendell. NZ is just packed with filming locations for these movies. I can't wait to get to the Shire. All in good time.
I'm still stalking Peter Jackson. Thought I had him a few weeks ago, but a false alarm. The search continues.
One piece of the set was still left standing.
Trees around here are just incredible.
A really fun swinging bridge enhanced by Jody.
Closing out this great morning and afternoon was a trip to this quaint restaurant where we had terrific scones, coffee, and tea. Charming! But, the day was still not over for us. That evening we went into downtown Wellington to see a play, BLACK FAGGOT, about the LGBT experience. Quite good, enjoyable, and moving. It seems like every day is a holiday and adventure here.
