7i eUi«t to c September 8 we were in Wellington, New Zealand, for a one day port visit. Here, as in Australia, the language was English and the people could not have been nicer to us. The greater Wellington area has a popu- lation of 255,700. It is in the geographical center of New Zealand proper and has one of the finest harbors in the world. Souveniers featured the Maoris, a Poly- nesian people of Caucasian origin who first populated the country.
