We spent a week on the North Island of New Zealand (our 9th country) in 2014...starting in Auckland and ending in Wellington. This shot is from the top of the cable car looking out over the city. #lens4change
Very worthwhile if in Wellington
The iconic Wellington cable car pic. Had to do it. Definitely worth the effort for the view! The ride is fun too with lights in the tunnels :)
