Experiencing Windy Wellington

 

The worst storm in over 20 years hit Wellington this past weekend!  Winds reached 145kph-200kph that's about 90-100mph!! We spent minimal time outside but when we did venture out of our motel room, you could really feel the intensity of the wind and rain that pelted our faces.  Several of the highways and trains were closed during the weekend. I didn't take the above photos since I was hiding inside but got them from the local NZ news website.

We took this opportunity to get better acquainted with our new favorite (indoor) places, the Porirua McDonalds, and our local movie theater to watch World War Z (which was awesome).
