wellingtons

sooooo, wellington is sweeeet. its on the water, nice harbor, houses and things on hills and good weather. if this is winter, than thats a freakin joke. its nice to be out of the center of the north island. spent a few nights in random towns on the interior and it pretty much sucked.

the hostel ive just been as was awesome. there were a lot of people, everyone was really friendly, and they were all motivated to hang out together. so, saturday night, i put on a tie (over regular clothes), put on some facepaint (why not?) and went out to the bars. i then got kicked out of the first bar ive ever been kicked out of by a very large and scary maori guy. im almost positive i got kicked out simply by association, i was not that drunk and calm (ive verified this for the sake of sanity). a few of the other kids were a bit insane and i think the bouncer just saw face paint and wanted those of us painted individuals to leaves.
