Catching up with the Coyles

We missed them on our last visit to Wellington so this time it was all about catching up with the Coyles. Bob is an old school friend of mine from Omagh, and now lives in Wellington with his wife Liz, son AJ, and daughter Maddy.

We couldn’t have wished for better Wellington weather this time around. Wall to wall sunshine and barely a breath of wind – so rare for this city!  Added to that, having our very own local tour guides and super hosts (the Coyle family now trading as “WBWT – Wee Bobby’s Wellington Tours”!), meant we had the makings of a great couple of days sightseeing, singing, eating and drinking. 

360 degree views from Mt Victoria, swimming at Scorching Bay, and a dip in Days Bay just a few of the must-do’s.

We had time too for a quick catch up with Joanne, another friend from our VSA volunteer days in South Africa.  Sadly just not enough time to catch up with more of our Kiwi friends. Hopefully there’ll be a next time.
