Ok, back to work

It is my last day in Wellington before I head off to the South Island to work on the vineyards. When I arrived here on Monday I said I would stay 1 or 2 nights. I stayed 5. I guess I wasn't as excited about vineyard work as I thought I was...weird! Obviously we have come to learn that me and work do not mix on this trip. It's been a great week so far, and Wellington is such a cool city. It is the capital of New Zealand and much better than Auckland. If Wellington was Alec Baldwin, Auckland would be like Stephen Baldwin. So here are some pics from the past week...

Huka Falls and Taupo...




The beautiful port city that is Wellington, the southernmost capital in the world...







Saturday I will be arriving in Seddon to start work on Tuesday. I changed my travel date for the bus there at the hostel in Wellington. This was the interaction:

Me: I would like to change my travel date for a bus ride
Agent: Ok, what was the Reference Number?
Me: 2039201391
Agent: That's Picton to...Seddon? Where the hell is Seddon? Is that right?
Me: Umm...yes
Agent: I have never even heard of that town
Me: Ok, ok, just shutup and change the ticket

So, Seddon is a little remote. I can make due. I will be working there for about a week (I know, poor me!), and then traveling the South Island for the 10 days after that. So keep following along and I will keep getting myself in and out of trouble.
