Collected the girls from the school – all waiting for us in the lobby with smiles. Off we trooped singing our tour song to some of the Wanganui hosts. Waves and see you next time. The weather was horrid – rain but at least we were in the coach and travelling. Now for another long drive – some three hours to Wellington – the southern most capital city in the world ( Sue Johns Quiz No.2 ). Stopped on the way at a retail factory outlet township for some retail therapy and several cups of coffee. Re-hydrated we boarded the bus for a further two hours of non-eventful stuff. Girls quiet and several sleeping – Sophie reading !! Lizzie happy that she now had an All Blacks shirt !!
Arrived in Wellington in time for a late lunch. Dropped our bags off at the hotel – booked a meal for the night. Staff not used to nice girls so it seems – treated them like teenagers – ooops they are teenagers . . Girls went shopping whilst the staff went shopping. JMS found a nice museum to have a sleep in so he did. JMS also found Molly Malone as well as Green Parrot for those in the know . . . . LOTR rule OK.
Back to the hotel for supper with ALL looking smart in the RGS gillets. Good meal hopefully followed by good sleep.
Shozza out
