Wellington New Zealand. The capital and another busy port and sailing area.

Our excursion took us high up to Mount Victoria where we got a view of the city and harbor with the surrounding hills.

But the more glamorous views were right down at the water with the waves crashing against the rocks. There were no swimmers in these areas!!
We also had a stop at the Botanical Gardens. The flowers were well past their peak since summer is almost over. But still very pretty at 61 degrees.
