Wellington to Wellington to Christchurch.
There is a reason Wellington is nicknamed "The Windy City". The wind blows! We were taken to the ferry terminal for the South Island, given our tickets, and then told the ferry was canceled because of weather. So back to Wellington and a different hotel. The ferry didn't go the next day either. The tour company paid to fly us to Christchurch, where the weather was worse. There is flooding in town, so we are stuck in the airport hotel until tomorrow. There were 160kph(100mph) winds and 30 foot waves. Luckily, the weather is improving for our train ride tomorrow.
