My first complete free day since Kiakoura. After breakfast I headed downtown along Queen Street to the harbour area there I wanted for find out the times of the boat across the bay to Devonport … every 30 min on the hour takes 12 min and costs 11 Dollar return.
Then went to the Maritime Museum and spent nearly 2 hours in there and even then I did’t have time to see everything. Moari early boats, Immigrants tales of getting here, Coastal boats, Whaling, Sir Peter Blake and the Americas Cup.
Then went over to Devonport to meet Birgitta and Peter and their two children, Matilda and Antonia. Had coffee and a good chat while the children went swimming, then went up to the top of Mount Victoria for a few photographs with a Waxmann Bag. The weather today was super, not a cloud in the sky.
Came back to the city and went to the Viaduct area. Found a super restaurant with free WiFi … see the previous entry!
Went back to the hotel not before doing some shopping … Strawberry Cheesecake and Ginger Beer!!!
