The challenge takes place between 12.30-2pm on the day, and will see teams of five compete in a treasure hunt on Somes/Maitu Island, a peg-leg race and a tug'o war. events museumsandgalleries waterfront art places blogs featured Tue, 11 Sep 2007 00:00:00 GMT http://wellingtonista.com/ahoy-me-hearties The Wellingtonista 2007-09-11T00:00:00Z http://wellingtonista.com/taking-the-good-with-the-bad Although Tom beat me to the chase on posting about the Waitangi Park Markets I thought I would supplement his post with a few secrets from the markets he may just have overlooked. waterfront places blogs featured Tue, 17 Jul 2007 00:00:00 GMT http://wellingtonista.com/taking-the-good-with-the-bad The Wellingtonista 2007-07-17T00:00:00Z
