Mish is 60!

We had a night in Wellington at a quirky stone tower called The Keep.



The afternoon we arrived was cold and stormy, with big interesting seas. Next day was calm and sunny and warm and we wandered around town. Then the next day was back to winter. Mad.

Mish coming down from the roof. You push up a heavy trapdoor to get up to the copper lined roof. Very nice.




Looking south across Cook Strait.




And looking east to Houghton Bay with one of our new double deckers coming around the corner. The trolley buses have gone, wires have come down, the whole city bus system has had an update and it is a shambles. Complaints are 'down' to 80 a day, which, in a little city, is pretty outrageous.





View from the roof, with breakfast. The full fry up, mmmm.



Panorama from the roof, looking east across Houghton Bay  to Wellington Harbour entrance.



Next day we did city stuff. Wandered around, went to photo collage exhibition at City Gallery, outdoor gear shops, and cafes of course. HAD to go to a couple of hardware stores to get one of Mischa's presents, a pole pruner. What every girl wants.

Mish at City Gallery rooftop cafe, taking birthday greetings from someone.



Got home about 4, had a rest, and headed out for swanky birthday dinner at Logan Brown later. An excellent day.
