    Getting TO/AROUND: See Gollum, from Lord of the Rings, hover over Wellington International Airport for his precious. Wellington Airport is actually quite nice for it's size and gets the job done without needless hastles along the way.

    Air New Zealand and Qantas fly to and from Wellington to all of New Zealand's major airports and to Australia as well. It's only a 5 minute drive to downtown Wellington and lies just on this side of Miramar, home to Peter Jackson and WETA. You will fly over a large bay and land in a nice area of town which many choose to surf at.

    There, on a side note, is a strong contengent now to rename the airport to Peter Jackson International Airport, thus in credit of the Lord of the Rings director and producer, a Wellington citizen.

     Deryk (spelling? forgive me!), I love your stuff here, especially the LOR travelogue... the photos of Wellington and surrounding area are inspiring, can't wait to get there!

     Great updates. But you are the wrong side of Mt Victoria in Kilbirnie, to see all of the people in the city.
