Hmmm... I think I might like it more if I lived somewhere else. Yes, crashing waves are exciting, but here in Wellington, it's so windy most of the time that you do get a bit sick of it. This time of year can be especially trying as it's when we start to get nice sunny weather. But often the wind is so strong it becomes unpleasant to be out in it. On the plus side, we have no pollution and we like to think that it keeps the Aucklanders away from our otherwise beautiful city.
