My opinions on matters of the day that, generally, have pissed me off. Being described as a 'Surly Curmudgeon', by those who meet me on a good day, I have a poor regard for the human species. This is my place for my free speech- not bloody yours. Crap under your own rock.

A day outing to Somes Island
You can't beat Wellington on a good day. Trick is getting Wellington on a good day- when you have a day off!
$62.50 for the ferry trip (family ticket) and $5/head if you want the guided tour.
A thoroughly enjoyable day (when you exclude tardy kids, flat car batteries, expired credit cards, last minute dirty nappies, exorbitant Wellington parking rates, children with eggcup sized bladders...
UPDATE:
Having been asked, the ferry trip takes 20 minutes. These is a sealed road up the hill to the quarantine station- an easy ten minute stroll with small children. There are plenty of tracks around the island OK for pushchairs and there are two toilets!
