Yep the whole clan, SD, Issy Elias and I will be there for the weekend of 19-20 September.
We are meeting mrsmojo and her gorgy kids at Te Papa on the Sunday @ 10.00 am and we would love for you to join us. Also any ideas for what we could do on Sat that the kids might enjoy? ------------- Mummy to Issy (3) and Elias (18 months) I did it .. 41 kgs gone!

Check out http://www.feelinggreat.co.nz - www.feelinggreat.co.nz for events on while you're down. There are a few good playgrounds around central Wellington - Frank Kitts is near where you're staying (I think) if you walk towards the waterfront you can't miss it. Waitangi Park is a bit further up from Te Papa and there's another playground close to that around Oriental Bay and a good one in the gardens (a short walk from the cable car). It's pretty naf but Michaela loves the bucket fountain up Cuba Mall and there's also a slide there and more importantly heaps of good cafes so you can sit down to eat and Issy will be entertained. If the weather is nice you could take a trip over to Days Bay on the ferry or rent a crocodile bike thing and take the kids for a ride around the waterfront. At Frank Kitts Park there's a bungy thing which is like a massive jolly jumper - great fun for the 3 older fatty's Check out http://www.wellingtonwaterfront.co.nz/ - http://www.wellingtonwaterfront.co.nz/ -------------

We'll be there! Give's me a great excuse to finally visit the market as well.
Jo has some good suggestions for Saturday as well. I second the coffee (at Plum!) on Cuba Mall while Issy admires the fountain

I love the market next to Te Papa. I've already decided on fish fresh off the boats for dinner on Sunday night -------------

Market? Are you talking about the old old one that's been there for donks across the road from Te Papa and just up from the old Rialto? I haven't been there for ages and wasn't sure that it was still going Is there still a market at Waitangi Park? ------------- http://lilypie.com">  http://lilypie.com">

Ooooooohhh! I think we'll be having the same! *drool*
MrsH, this one is in the carpark beside Te Papa. I think it moved there from somewhere? There's another on on Victoria St. I've never been to either of them before however. |

I've just found this, we'll be joining you guys too - see you then 
Speaking of markets, I keep meaning to go to the http://www.citymarket.co.nz/ - City Market - maybe I'll go there after we meet up. And where exactly in Te Papa are you guys meeting (at the downstairs cafe?) |

Where has this thread been hiding!?!?
We are coming too of course, although may be a little late as we will most likely be training it it at 9 so will have to walk across the waterfront. -------------
