While I was in the Bay Area, I caught up with heaps of old friends and made some great new friends. The Bay Area is a very seductive place, so I was a little worried that coming back to Wellington was going to be an anti-climax. It turned out to be quite the opposite. I have a new found appreciation and admiration for our own harbour city and how great we have it here.
