Wellington ROCKS!

Today was my first class field trip! We went to a quarry to study geology. I find it quite fascinating (earthquakes, volcanoes, and things like that), but the biology majors don't. We examined the sedimentary rock faces revealed in the quarry, and then the fault lines that litter Wellington. I think I mentioned before that there's a fault line less than a mile away. Well, there are at least 6 other fault lines within the Wellington area! Tomorrow is Thursday which means it's almost the weekend! We leave directly after class tomorrow to head towards the middle of North Island. The plan is to go caving and canoeing as well as to visit some geotherms and an authentic native village! It'll be packed, and expensive, but lots and lots of fun!
