Dunedin wanted to get rid of us, from 4 o’clock in the morning there was no more electricity, so we left without breakfast on the way to Christchurch we found a café with good toasty’s. The route was varied, sometimes on the coast, it was more than four hours drive. We were warmly welcomed by […]
Because yesterday was such bad weather, we first drove to the Nugget Point Lighthouse in the morning. The way to Dunedin was entertaining on SH1 and we were there quickly. Larnach Castle is located just outside Dunedin in a beautiful garden. We are very centrally accommodated in the Dunedin Palm Motel, we go for a […]
