We decided to have lunch in the nearby Wellington Botanical Gardens. This was our lunchtime view.
Grandma had packed a yummy picnic lunch.
The Sparrows were very cheeky little fellows...
They have impeccable taste though - Grandma's Christmas cake was divine!
Behind us while we were eating lunch was this massive gun which is called the Krupp Gun. It was captured during the First World War and after the War it was shipped back to New Zealand as a war trophy.
After lunch we went to a rose garden in another part of the Botanical Gardens. It was so beautiful!
Miss H loves taking pictures of roses (every time we see roses on a trip Miss H HAS to stop!!!), and so I thought I would share some with you:
This is the view from up on a hill looking down at the rose garden.
I still have a couple more Christmas related posts to share. I know that it is well after Christmas now, but Christmas is my favourite time of year so I always make it last as looooooong as possible.
