Helen enjoying a sunny lunch on our deck and our fantastic view.On Saturday we went for a walk with Max and Jo in the Belmont Hills, just north of Wellington City.
Looking south over Wellington Harbour from Belmont Trig (CBD behind Tim's head).It was such a clear day and the hills of Marlborough sounds looked so close and big across the Cook Strait.

On Sunday, the weather was a bit more menacing so headed to Mount Vic to go mountain biking with Dan. This was the first time we had been to Mount Vic since exactly a year ago today (7th) when we passed through Wellington on our way to the South Island with no idea we would be living here for 9 months. The mountain biking tracks were very different to the trails of Makara Peak so it was good to do a bit more exploring.
