Wellinton, part 2

I think i've spent 2 days doing nothing in New Zealand... just plain walking around the shoreline looking at people's antic and common culture of westerners.. It was pretty fascinating sometimes, but sitting there doing nothing is kinda boring isnt it... Been to most of the places already, and was supposingly going to visit Zealandia. However, the weather is pretty unpredictable with heavy clouds and high wind :(

Wellington port

Never really see anyone washing windows and wall this way, but it's interesting job

This was taken on Hokitia, an old crane on a ship. Almost 90% of the workers here are old people. I wonder why? Is it because they are very skillful and experienced? Im sure they are.. but i also think, it's because the younger generations wouldnt want to work in this field anymore..
Still strong and skillful!

They are a numbers of poetry along the walkway.. meaningful stuff!

In conjunction with the Rugby World Cup 2011, there's some good photos and information about the history in NZ rugby
