Spent nearly the whole day in the capital’s Te Papa Museum which is excellent. We learned about the making of these fabulous islands: the movements of the tectonic plates, volcanoes etc. We experienced what it would be like to be in an earthquake, discovered plants and birds we’d never heard of before and got chucked out before having time to finish the massive collection of art. Froze as we braved the chilly winds along the harbour and headed for shelter in the shops. From there, we took the cable car up to the extensive Botanical Gardens but it was so uncomfortably cold we quickly headed back down the hill for a warming curry.
