The Wahine disaster


Koka Ritihia told us a story of the storm that happened that caused the Wahine disaster. She was growing up in Wellington at the time that it happened. We went to see the place where it ran aground. The kids had a photo sitting on the actual anchor that belonged to the Wahine. There is a playground there too, which is fitting because there were children that died there too. After a play on the playground, we headed off for the Zoo.
