the Lighthouse
The suspense is over! I finally got the photos organized.
Hubby took 99% of these photos (thanks, Hubby!).
Simply called 'The Lighthouse' and is in Island Bay in Wellington,
it's a 'bach' (summer house) built for the owner's wife as a surprise.
Here's what it looks like in the daytime.
First floor, entry. Through the door is a shower and toilet.
Second floor.
The third floor has a couch for inside viewing.
And, of course, doors for outside viewing!
Pencarrow lighthouse across the bay.
One final look as we were leaving.

views from the lighthouse
This post is a continuation of an earlier post about the Rutherford Lighthouse Museum. We finally got to climb to the top of the lighthouse and admire the 1850's light along with the view.

Lighthouse replica at Warea
When the 160-year-old light was removed from the Cape Egmont Lighthouse, to be replaced with a modern rotating beacon, Len Pentelow set about raising money to build a replica lighthouse for the special Fresnel prismatic light. This replica lighthouse is now a museum. Click here for my previous post about the museum.

The Rutherford Lighthouse Museum at the end of Bayley Road is a specially designed replica lighthouse
housing the 1850’s Fresnil Prismatic Light that powered the Cape Egmont Lighthouse until 1999.
