We had a fancy new switchboard installed last week so decided to run away to town while the power was off for hours. Drove to mum's and left the car at her place to train into the city. Walked across town to our hotel, picking up some books in one of our go-to bookshops and checking out the outdoor shops. A city moment.
Delicious dinner at a modern Vietnamese (Apache) and excellent breakfast next day at a very trendy cafe (Acme).
Loved the upmarket porridge.
Headed out to an immersive art installation showing a film of eight years of Wellington's winds at a day a second. Cosmic.
Then a bit of shopping (she bought it).
And up the cable car into the botanic gardens. Bit drizzly but lovely temperature for the middle of winter. Contemplating.
Walked back down to the city through the gardens, popping out at my favourite city restaurant (gosh, look at that): Where's Charlie? (best Vietnamese in town).
And train back to mum's.
