It’s a rare bright and sunny day at Wellington during the winter. It was a little late in the evening then and with no place interesting nearby, I quickly jump into bus no. 3 and head to Lyall Bay.

I wasn’t expecting anything extraordinary but I guess I’m wrong. The scenery is just beautiful, with nice view of the airport, mountains, and very ‘blue’ water. I walked quite a distance along the beach, for about 2 hours, and didn’t regret doing that as I’ve found a weird looking figure that compliments so well to my photo below.


Looks like Moai figure of Easter Island

Quite empty huh? Hey, it’s winter and the water must be freezing
