A visit to Weta Cave, Wellington

another late posting ...but biar lambat asal update ..tak macam org Keramat ngan Kuantan kan kan kan :-)

Went to Weta Cave - kecik jer tempat nya ...it housed workshop utk movie Peter Jackson like Hobbits, Lords of the Ring, Tin Tin, Avatar, King Kong etc ...and shop for souveniours ..entrance masuk sini percuma ...but kalau nak masuk workshop baru berbayar ...akak pergi utk look see look see ajer ..actually went there in October last year .. I was stressed out by my data entry but it was a nice sunny day in spring ..terasa rugi tak keluar ..so make a spontenous decision to go out for brunch ngan my friend, then melencong sekejap ke Miramar - utk ke Weta Cave ..pas posing posing, terus mintak dia drop me off di opis ..hahaha the life of PhD student ..kerja kerja jugak..but bila ada peluang jalan, harusssssss .....

the months of Oct- Dec - my life is basically office office office ... macam kena crushed ngan trolls ajer hahaha

entrance to Weta Cave ...

actually kecik ajer tempat nie ..but orang tak nak missed tempat nie sebab nak ambik gambar with the trolls ...ngan Gandalf etc ...kalau rushing and takde masa ...like me, we spend about 30 mins here ... but dia ada free documentary ..about 25-30mins ...kami tak tengok pun hahaha maybe next time aku stay on for the documentary

masuk masuk jer ke sini, akan jumpa this three trolls - from the Hobbits - meet Tom, Bert and William ..hahaha masa kami sampai takde orang ...so sakan aku posing...kawan aku layan ajer hahaha nasib baik ada photographer ok! but masa nak kuar tu ingat nak posing lagi ...takde makna nya coz by then punya ramai orang kat sini ngan the trolls ...sampai berlaga vontot ..sebab tempat dia kecik jer ...

the main purpose I came here ...hahaha to take photo with Golum @smeagol hahaha and the ring is a necessary accessory hahahaha ..

hahaha ..my precious ....my precious ....

and jumpa pakcik Gandalf ...dia macam tak nak selfie ngan akak le ...ngades org tua tu!

sementara tu, ada gak le benda2 lain in here ....but tak banyak ...sebab tu aku kata 30 mins tu cukup sangat!

 kaki Bilbo - yang dia pakai in the film 

 a hobbit's custome ...huduh kan kuku kaki dorang hahahah

 tak ingat nama mamat nie

Peter Jackson also buat King Kong ..and rupanya some scenes of King Kong dibuat kat Welly ..there you go ...one of these days aku akan cari kat mana tempat tu ..cerita king kong pun aku ingat ingat lupa hahaha ...but aku ingat ending dia sedih

pas look see look see ..and we bumped into a friend gak kat sini hahaha ...tapi tak bergambar ..we came out ..ingat nak posing lagi ...but like i said ..orang ramai kat laman trolls tu ...so aku selfie ajer lah ngan si troll tu for the last time

reason buat posting ini??? hahaha it is a prelude to my trip to Matamata ...to Hobbitton ..insyallah next week ....watch this space for more updates on Hobbiton ...
