We went into Wellington and had a walk with my cousin Shelwyn (16000 steps) followed by coffee at a local cafe.
Shelwyn and her twin, Raewyn, are somewhat unique (as well as being as different as chalk and cheese)....they are twins but were born on different days, so celebrate their birthdays on different days, with today being Shelwyn's 65th birthday.
As in BC, New Zealanders get a gold card at age 65 and become eligible for a series of discounts, especially on public transit and other public services in the larger cities.
During our walk we passed a movie theatre with substantial Hobbit advertising.
