our goal today is to find and purchase some means of transportation. We get word of a guy in the lower hut who has tuns of cars that are in our price range.
we have no time to spare because we turn in the rental tomorrow morning. I wanted a car for the main reason of not having to haul all our shit on public transportation. It
will also help to have something to store our stuff in while we are doing our things out and about.

The only other stop we made was a store in Levin. It was a retail store and production plant of a brand of clothing that I discovered at a fly-shop out side of lake Taupo.To all
my buddies who are reading this you have to check out this gear. The brand is called (Swazi). It fits like Northface, feels like Mountain hardware, and looks like Patagonia.
We got to see the production shop. It's cool because one person works on one article of clothing the whole time. Their is no assembly line. Actually There is a tag on the
clothes that had the name of the person who made it. For example my new fleece vest was made by a woman named Wilkie. Well done Wilkie, it fits like a glove.
We were in the main shop so we got everything super cheep. That's good thought because I almost bought the whole store..

We move on..
We got to the lower hut and meet our hook-up man that goes by the name of Adrian. After a long process of deciding what money we want to spend and what will keep us moving down the road, we make a
purchase. I am proud to announce that I am a half owner of a 1996 Mitsubishi Leglum ls. Its like a Subaru but not as cool. We paid 2700 NZ cash for this thing. It will cost us about $650 American
after its all said and done. Adrian promises that he will buy it back for 1500, but we will have to see about that, wont we!!
Its been a long day and its pissing rain so we just want to get a room and get ready to get to the south Island.

We walk around the square in Wellington and its very impressive. It reminds me of a small Austin, Texas. The crowd is young and very retro. Allot of live music on the streets and in the bars. It was a very
hip town. Cody and I both agreed that we would rather say out of the big towns for that's not what this trip is about.Its about the back roads! I enjoy the small town atmosphere and the things that a big town can not offer.
