Southward car museum and Queen Elizabeth park.

Along the Kapiti coast to Paraparaumu to see the Southward car museum. It houses a Gangster Cadillac from the 20's and Marlene Dietrich's Limo amongst hundreds of other amazing vehicles. One of our favourite cars was a 1918 electric car by Rauch and Lang. We could have spent all day here just wandering, we were sorry to leave.






 
Further down the coast we popped into Queen Elizabeth park to see the Tramway museum which was closing just as we arrived. Instead we took a walk around the wetland areas and down to the sea.


 
We planned to go to a campsite at Porirua but after a quick look decided it was not for us, it looked like a gypsy encampment. Consulting our Sat Nav we found another conservation site at Battle Hill farm forest park. A Great site just inland from the Porirua harbour.
