No Kiwis today

We had also planned to take in the ‘Kiwi and Birdlife Park’ as was described in our slightly out of date tour book. The book listed the cost of admission as $10.50. We estimated the price would have gone up to maybe $15 – which is OK by my sensibilities. When we got there – the price was a whopping $25 each – no thanks! We had already seen the other birds in the Wellington Zoo – the only thing we wanted to see was the kiwi and it just wasn’t worth $50 for the two of us. There will be other opportunities in Christchurch or, if not, I’ll buy a postcard with a picture of one!
