Wednesday, December 21, 2022<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was raining in the morning, so I stayed in our room while Jim went on a tour of the Beehive, the Parliament. I found him outside, after his tour was over, and we walked to the base of the Wellington cable car, a few blocks away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We rode up the cable car to the top, had lunch, looked around in the museum, and then came back down. I was ready for a rest!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Later we walked to a bistro that is located in the original home of John Plimmer. Delicious dinner outside in the garden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This cute building used to be the home of John Plimmer, the father of Wellington, and the ancestor of my cousin in law, David Page. It is now the Boulcott Street Bistro.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
