Dunedin



So here we are at the Scottish empire in New Zealand! Not that we saw a hell of a lot of it as we were stuck in some train doing some gorge but at least we had a couple of 500ml stouts to calm the nerves en route.

Back at the Southern Cross Hotel after dinner the Missus is doing her hair while I am pounding keys at the 10$ pc and all is sweet in the world of the bears.

Gosh knows where we are tomorrow. Somebody said Twingel but your guess is as good as mine.

These coach tours are absolutely brilliant for making new friends but ye Gods you do not settle in one place long enough. Thinking of coming back to Christchurch and Queenstown under our own steam to really get to grips with it.

Chilled out with surplus scenery that you would not believe. Last night's Milford Sound waterfalls in high water from road and steamer were the best we have ever seen but looking forward to the possibility of doing a day trip to Niagra whilst in New York.

Hello you two,
Glad to hear that you are enjoying your trip of a lifetime!
Caz is here in Leeds this weekend where it has been snowing again today! We have had a great time and have done some daytripping of our own and went to the Museum of Film and Photography in Bradford. As luck would have it we saw a 3D film all about dinosaurs and palentology - right up young Caz's street!!! Lots of love Pen and Caz xxx
