If you're in into biking, or windsurfing Wellington is definitely a stunning place to live.
[edit] Also since everybody is talking about emus, this trail is actually called barking emu. But it is misnamed - since it's actually an Ostrich in the paddock up there.
- melloclello 9y agoOstriches... is that up by that bizarre castle house that's been turned into a dog kennel?
- incompatible 9y agoWouldn't the commute home be a bit tough on a bike?
- 0xADEADBEE 9y agoYes. What GP is omitting is that Wellington winters are akin to England but with a great deal more wind. In the summer, that commute is likely wonderful, but for four months of the year, it isn't.
- incompatible 9y agoI was thinking of a big hill climb, but obviously the wind would be a big issue too, even in summer.
- xxgreg 9y agoYeah, which is why there is wind/kite-surfing, as a sport for the windy days ;)
