Dunedin Harbor seen from Otago Peninsula
Sheep with the beautiful views!
More sheep. There are a lot of them here, you know.
The good news is that our Clairey is doing better today! We had a window of opportunity this morning to go out to the Otago Peninsula for the first time. We had heard so much about this place since we first researched the area.
Though the sun was not out, the harbor with the hills surrounding it, was pretty marvelous. We could have taken two roads, the lower or the upper. We chose the former, which winds next to the water, going past small villages along the way.
We made it to the town of Portabello, had morning tea (what the Kiwis call snack / coffee breal), and came back to town.
There is a lot to do on the peninsula: penguins and albatross watching for sure, an aquarium which also serves as a marine institute for the University, Larnarch Castle (NZ's only castle), gardens, beaches, and several bays. We will be returning soon, and perhaps the sun will be with us next time, to enlighten the already beautiful landscape that we saw today.
