Wellington

Wednesday night I crashed in my old flat in Christchurch with Ben, Jasiah, and the new flat mates. I caught the bus in the morning (after getting my Canty t-shirt) to the airport where I met Matt and Lauren. We took off for Wellington mid morning.



The flight was only 30 or so minutes long, but the sky was clear and the Cook Strait looked real cool.



We took the bus to downtown, walked around a bit, then met Preston and Rafaela (friends from Arcadia orientation) at Preston's place. We bunked up there as home base for the weekend.

The weather was great, so we went down to the Wharf and did some flips into the harbour. After a photoshoot with random tourists and a cut toe, Preston showed us more of the city, then back to his place.

Victoria University and most university housing is all on a big hillside. My calves got quite the workout. Cool terrain and a great view of the city and harbour though.

We met some friends for a party, got to see a bit of the city nightlife, saw the campus, ate a lot of food, drank probably too much beer, and watched every Dom Mazzetti video at least once.

I had a lot of fun hanging out with Preston again, he's a rad bro, but I had to leave early to get back in time to finish a project due Monday morning.
