After a rough week of earthquakes (the biggest one being magnitude 7.8), tsunami alerts, strong gale winds and rain and heavy flooding… It seems that better days has finally come for Wellington and we’re finally having a good dose of warmth and sunshine here in the ‘coolest little capital’ in the world.

In order to make the most out of one of the nice and sunny days we’ve been having.. me and my flatmate and very good friend Jennifer decided to spend the afternoon in one of the beaches here in Wellington. She suggested we go to Scorching Bay.

 *Here’s a panorama shot I took while we were there.*

On our way out of the door of our flat, we saw Jan (the boyfriend) who had just arrived from his shift at the hospital and we urged him to go with us as well!

The wellingtonnz website describes Scorching Bay as “A popular sandy roadside bathing beach.” More info about the bay can be found here: http://www.wellingtonnz.com/screen/locations-directory/scorching-bay/

We had a nice and relaxing time just sitting/lying down on the grassy area facing the beach… talking, listening to music, taking photos and we even managed having a little nap!

It is very true when people say NOTHING BEATS WELLINGTON ON A GOOD DAY!❤
