Good Vibrations

I survived the 4.6 earthquake that shook the land last night. To be honest the sensation reminded me of when your upstairs at the bookshop and a lorry goes past, where the windows rattle and the house shakes a bit.

Yesterday we caught the cable car up to the botanical gardens where we gazed at trees, sniffed roses and drank a nice cup of English tea.

Rachel and I went into Wellington on Saturday night, which reminded me of a European country (or any country other than England) where everyone was sitting in the streets being jolly, all night funky cafe's and dancing to buskers playing Bob Marley. It was very relaxed and al fresco.
Part of the wellingtons art festival is an installation where massive lights shine on a building, you stand in front of them, and the distance you are away from the lights depends on how big your shadow is, this kept us entertained for ages. One couple got really into it and kept thinking of funny things to do (photos on flickr).

Iv also visited the beach this weekend where I got rather burnt, not realising how hot it was.
Hope everyones well xxxxx
