Dh has been offered a short contract in Wellington and I'm expecting to join him for about 3 weeks of that. I've not been to Wellington. All I know is it's windy, hilly and will be very cold in June, when we're going. He'll be working midweek but I hope we can have a couple of weekends away, maybe taking a ferry to the south island. How far south could we travel in a weekend whilst taking in sights?

Given I'll be on my own midweek days, 20+ weeks pregnant with SPD, what are the sorts of things I can do and see? I'm independent, so have no problem doing things on my own. However, I may have some physical restrictions.

How cold are we talking anyway?
