Wednesday, March 7: Wellington - Christchurch

I finally did the touristy thing in Wellington. I went and saw the national archives, national library, the pariliament, the parliament building, and the government building, also called "the beehive" as it looks very much like one (I wonder what the employees are called). Conveniently, all these buildings are one next to the other. In all honesty, I don't find NZ history all that exicting, and I can hardly say that I was impressed too much by those national buildings. O well, at list they have good view...

I'm already half way through my book. Squeezing chapters whenever I can.
Finally, I made it out of Wellington (I thought I'd never leave). Got a short flight to Christchurch (not to be confused with Jewtown).

I have one oddity (is that even a word?) to report. When I went to bed the last couple of nights there was this extermely annoying high pitch sound. Upon asking the guy at the front desk to do something about it, he said he couldn't hear a thing! Anyway, it was loud enough that for the first time in my life I had to sleep with earplugs! I suppose I'm my own best friend (now who knows where that's taken from?)...
