Wellington is the capital city of New Zealand. It is located near the North Island’s southernmost point on the Cook Strait, which separates the North and South Islands of New Zealand. Strong winds through the Cook Strait give it the nickname "Windy Wellington."
We took the iconic red Wellington Cable Car up to Kelburn, a suburb in the hills overlooking the city. There were great views of the city down below and we could even see our ship from there. From Kelburn, we went by bus to Wellington Botanic Gardens where we enjoyed a yummy cheese scone and meandered through the beautiful gardens.
