Zealandia!!!

This is going to be a must stop for anyone coming to visit us and I'm looking forward to coming more than once my self.

In a nutshell, Zealandia is a bird and wildlife sanctuary.  Its been designed to transform the land back to what New Zealand would have been like without outside interference.  All non-native plants and animals have been removed and fence surrounding the property does its best at keeping them out in the future as well.  Its an amazing escape from the city and you can hardly imagine that just a couple miles away the big(ish) city of Wellington is nearby. 

There is also an amazing cafĂ© - further cementing the fact that New Zealanders know how to make coffee.
