Well, it's not quite as bad, but almost. I think I'm suffering from serious sight-seeing overload. If I didn't have my blog it would actually be very hard to remember what I did when. But I did arrive in "Windy Wellington" yesterday and it has been living up to its name. It's good to be somewhere for more than 1 night (3, in this case), and I've already done and seen a lot (a guided walk around the city, the cable car, the botanical gardens, and the museum Te Papa - which is amazing). But tonight I'm really tired and think I'll just have an early night (before doing a winery tour tomorrow).
P.S.: The wine tour was lot of fun. We visited four wineries: Alana Estate, Muirlea Rise, Murdoch James Estate and Te Kairanga, and got to taste about 5 wines each. The Martinborough region is especially famous for its Pinot Noirs. The wines were good, although I didn't taste anything that really swept me off my feet (after glass 15 they all seem the same, don't they? I know you're not supposed to really drink them all, but I thought it would be rude towards the people who had worked so hard on producing it). Muirlea Rise was great, because the owner also explained a few things about winegrowing, and this guy was extremely entertaining!

Hi Meike,
yes, travelling can be sooo exhausting. However, don't expect too much sympathy to come from Wellington Mill.
Here's an exciting development you're missing: two of your favourite things about the UK have teamed up... magazines and Jamie Oliver! Yes, after being a 'naked' chef, cooking school dinners, having his own ministry (not to mention crockery range)and advertising a supermarket chain, Mr Oliver has just launched his own magazine.
But don't worry, I'll get you one for Christmas and you can pick it up once you're back.
If you ever come back.
And if you decide to move in with the glow worms, I'll come down some day to deliver it in person ;)
It's great to read that you're having such a fabulous time.
Much love
Alke
