I think I like this city even if we met under grey skies and cold winds. Max. of 10 today and most of the places on the Otago Peninsula were closer to 6C.
Left my expensive glasses at the Penguin cafe, Portobello where we breakfasted. Nice coffee.
Yet another wonderful Kiwi road precariously perched beside the Otago Harbour. Our RTA/RMS would have ruined the view with armco railings. As it was, I had to concentrate to much on driving, which brings me to one whinge: photography.
I remember the old aphorism about the amateur photographer taking a moment and missing the shot while the pro takes the moment. As I concentrate on the road, I watch Tess see a great shot and either fumble with the damn modern camera or take a completely different shot that attracted her. I suppose I could let her drive!
One of hers
And another
Taiaroa Head
Royal Albatross Centre (as in, this is one of their photos)
A sign Tess took
I insisted on this shot but a bit earlier when the roots were more striking!
On our return to Dunedin we drove high into the hills to Signal Point Lookout
with peculiar statues. We piked climbing Baldwin Street.
In the evening we wandered through the campus of the University of Otago
Very nice
Especially in Autumn
Lots of watering holes in this young Uni town
