Wellington

Driving around Wellington...

We were looking for Lyall bay but ended up here in Island bay...

The beach at your front:
...the mountain behind you:
and the ground we stood on:

Driving on...
The Motorway - 105 km/hr


Mt. Victoria lookout!!
Yeah this is what Wellington looks like, somewhat like Baguio!!

Schmap Travel Guides

Today, I got an email that my photos were included in the third edition of the Schmap Wellington Guide. Kinda cool actually, even though I haven't heard of Schmap.com before. Lol. When I want to go some place, I just google "places to see", "tourist spots", etc. which gives me lots of results and links to travel websites and other people's personal blogs. Hehe.

Hmmm... maybe I'll put up my own travel blog in New Zealand. HMMMMM....

Knocked Up


Believe the hype. It's one of the funniest films this year!! The characters are so real, you can relate to them. The prosthetics is also good. Gone are the days when actresses who played pregnant women will do so by putting a pillow under their dress. With the resources we have today, it can get real as much as we want it to be. I also loved the credits at the end of the film. Who doesn't love baby pictures? Awww. Smileys

One thing I find it hard to understand about men in general (which was also shown in this film) is them wanting to have their "sanity" time. I remember Dar and I had this talk before about his "sanity" thing. Geeez. All of us need time to get away from it all sometimes.

Free movie passes

I did a favor for my officemate and he asked me how much for my time and I said don't worry about it (coz it's actually Darwin who made it hehe). Well after lunch he gave me 2 movie passes. Yey! :) We're going to watch Knocked Up probably tomorrow.


No need to wait for cheap Tuesdays HEHEHE...

Oriental Bay, Wellington



Around 15 minute walk from my place, if you just want to stroll and think. Quite peaceful and away from the city noise.
