Our Time in Wellington

Greetings friends.  Brad here.  We truly loved New Zealand.  We had the joy of spending some time with Nigel and Ailsa Pollock and their family in Wellington.  Nigel works with the New Zealand version of IFES (International Fellowship of Evangelical Students).  He took a day to show us around Wellington.

This is the theater where Peter Jackson's "The Lord of the Rings" had its debut

This was a very interesting speed camera.  Kind of like Star Wars meets Orwell's 1984!  Big Brother really is watching!

Looking over Wellington from Mount Victoria in Wellington.  Just beautiful

We took the ferry from Wellington (north island) to Picton (south island).  Simply beautiful.


A big thank you to the Pollocks for a wonderful stay in Wellington!
