From Gran Canaria to New Zealand We are on our way to New Zealand from the Canary islands. We live here, but are Norwegian. We work here as; he - nurse, she - teacher. karen lived in New Zealand years and years ago, and now we are on our way back - so karen can "show off" this lovely country of her youth.

I, Karen, spent 6 hours in the 6-story Wellington museum -Te Papa, while Erik was on a "Lord Of The Rings tour" and at a tattoo-museum. We both had a lovely time. We walked around the city and the shops were open real late in the Cuba-district. The center is divided into four districts, all easily accessed. Can't just now remember their names. We stayed, as usual, in a youth hostel. Own room, own bathroom - 75$. Walked along the key, lovely. Oh - and of course we went to the cinema: The Simpsons, this time.
