Dunedin to ???
When we left Dunedin it was nice and sunny…just as we arrived at Moreiki Boulders it started raining…but we had to see those famous boulders
ahh..maybe this way..
Next stop is Oamaru..the Victorian Harbour town was fun to visit..
and the Steampunk museum which was a lot of fun
A day in Dunedin
Dunedin weather is crazy. ..well all over NZ the weather has been crazy with 4 seasons in one day
We took advantage of the sunshine early morning and walked through the botanic garden near where we’re staying…but half way through the walk it rained. ..then stopped
A 40 minutes drive to the Otago Peninsula is the Larnach Castle, where we toured its gardens.
Larnach Castle
A little farther we cames to….heads on the Otago Peninsula where the yellow eyed penguins amd fur seals are supposed to frequent. .we managed to see a few seals but had to return at 9pm for the penguins…thats way past our bed time..
Some Dunedin sites
Dunedin Railway Station
Dunedin Council Chambers
Arrowtown to Dunedin
The wind was howling and there was heavy rains in Arrowtown all night…
After a hearty breakfast at the B&B we decided to ditch the west coast due to the bad weather and stay on the East coast..
We decided to head for the Caitlin coast and maybe set up in Kaka Point….it rained all the way
But where else can you drive through rural area with sheep and deer all around then come to beautiful rainfalls?
where else can you drive along an ocean road and see a fur seal come to rest on the beach…
The Caitlin coast has a beautiful view no matter where you drive…
Due to the rain..we decided to stay in Dunedin for the next couple nights
