3/17/15. Wellington

Happy St. Patrick's Day!  We spent some time yesterday afternoon re-packing our suitcases, which had gotten a bit shuffled over the last few weeks.  We did walk around the corner to the Green a Parrot for dinner.  It was still raining and very windy.  Dinner was very good.  John and I had fish and Dave and Lana had scallops.  We came back for some quiet reading time and then sleep.

Today we are walking to the national museum and then have the afternoon free.  I'm not sure what we should do as it is weather dependent.  While it is not raining yet, the skies are cloudy and it is again very windy.  We will see how it looks after the museum tour.  We have our farewell dinner tonight and tomorrow we leave for the airport at 4:30 AM.  We will fly to Sydney, Australia and then on to L.A.  We will stay overnight there before flying home the next day.  We keep hoping that the snow will be gone when we get home, but have heard from Amy and Susanne that while it is melting, it will not be completely gone.  We look forward to catching up with family and friends on our return.
