Wellington

Today we are in Wellington and have chosen to go ashore on our own to look at the shops etc. we got off the ship and there was a shuttle service which charged $10 per person return trip and you can use it as many times as you like throughout the day. The tickets require cash so be prepared for this. To exchange cash on the ship there is a $6.00 fee and then you need to factor in the exchange rate. We got hit with double fees because we had no AU dollars left and had to get some from the ship's ATM which dispenses AU$ but the ATM also charged a $6.00 transaction fee.

Something to watch out for....

Anyway Wellington was nice and sunny which was pretty cool....
