Day 6 to Dunedin.

 Off we head again south towards Dunedin stopping a couple of times to check out some sights.






First stop was to see a lighthouse at Katiki Pt - Another unmanned one. A short walk along the hill and down is where you can see fur seals and bird colonies. Also suppose to be penguins there but not at our time of day needs to be near dark.










Off again down the road to Shag Pt to see some more fur seals. Only a few there this time.





On to Dunedin where we stopped in town to visit the info centre and Elizabeth had to go to another quit store. She was looking for NZ prints to make stuff with again :)





That's about it for today

The water was very cool and the sand as white as we've seen it. After this we headed to Central station , the old tree clearing head quarters.

A small fresh water lake with a couple of cat fish in it. Then off to our accommodation for the night. The next day we headed out to run the beach pretty much all day heading all the way up to Champagne Pools. We eventua...

Hervey Bay and the case of the missing whales.

 Hi lovelies, It has been some 8 months since our last post.  Travel around the world has certainly changed in 2020. We had not planned to do too much traveling in the first half of the year, but we quickly discovered that us making that decision and the government telling us that we won't are two very different things. :-). Feeling the need for a bit of a break, and a touch of fishing we headed for Hervey Bay on Wednesday. We had a great drive up, even managed to stop for a quick chat with the lovely Shirley in Cooya.   On Thursday we headed for a quick trip to the information centre.  To my surprise Robbie wanted to book another whale watching cruise.  We spoke at length to the agent there and finally chose what was supposed to be the calmest day for the next week.  It was then off for a drive along the coast line from Point Vernon to Urangan.   The day was beautiful, though there were large patches of mist/fog that hung around some of the ...
