Dunedin

Dunedin, New Zealand


Mon.14th Dunedin is considered to be the Scottish city of NZ.Somewhat hilly and clean as are all the cities we've seen in NZ.There is a very nice shopping area which I had seen before but didn't visit again,all prices are very high.Most edibles and clothes cost more than in the US.
I went on a wildlife safari which was quite rugged.It was a drive of 1 1/2hrs to Nature's Wonders.We were given green oilskin jackets and got into all wheel drive vehicles with 8 wheels,4in the back and 2 up front with the driver.The terrain was muddy from the recent rains,hence the jackets.
We went to a fur seal colony and saw adorable baby seals.We then drove to a yellow-eyed seal colony.They are extremely rare so no one is allowed near.I saw 2 blobs on the sand,one of which moved,so I assume it was a Penguin.
The drive back was lovely along the water.
