Weekend in Wellington

This weekend I went with a friend to Wellington. We left on Friday afternoon and took the train into the city and then came back on Sunday morning. Mostly all I did was walk around the city and buy things (thanks, Mom!). Pictures from the trip:

This is as we were heading out. Super sketchy, right? We didn't talk to anyone before getting on the train, either. 
On the train ride there. 

Wellington train station, much less sketchy.

In our hotel, GIANT BATH TUB. I took advantage of this.

Such a delicious breakfast. Kiwis love their "cream" on things, and so does Erin.

This is Cuba Mall where lots of people drink coffee and shop.
Is that a lonely girl scout selling cookies? Yup. I remember those days...

More pictures of Cuba street.

I like this book store. 

More people.

Crazy man on a unicycle contraption being crazy.
Lots of coffee places. This was my third latte.

Girl scout cookies! I couldn't help myself. Fun fact: the level we call Daisys in the states they call Pippins
Whale!

I don't know these people. They ran up as we were taking the picture. I felt so awkward. 
This is the national museum of New Zealand
Bay
Inside the museum, these are all bones of different sea life
Ancient moa? Maybe?
Kiwis!
DINOSAUR
Then we saw a wedding. Cute.
Cider is pretty big here. And delicious
Not so flattering train picture.

Now I'm back at school and I should probably do my readings for tomorrow.

1-that breakfast looks as good, dare i say better, than any cracker barrel meal.

2-the picture where the dude ran up around you made me bust out laughing. let's please do that to someone when you get back.
