Our Last Day in New Zealand - Dunedin to Christchurch

We spent our last day in New Zealand touring Dunedin then driving to Christchurch.  We are going to miss this place, but looking forward to seeing family and friends when we return.

 This is over-looking Otago Peninsula in Dunedin.
We stayed in a small Bed and Breakfast in Dunedin called the "Albatross Inn".


 Great Breakfast

We headed out in the morning and drove around Otago Peninsula.  We came across this little park and had to stop to take a picture for our Son-in-law, the dentist!  Not sure what this is supposed to be.
More beautiful and massive trees!




We wish we would have taken a video of these sheep.  Incredible!








From the peninsula, we headed a little bit south to Tunnels Beach.  More incredible views!






 We found carvings in the rocks dating back to 1930 and 1933, that we could find.




Such a beautiful place!  We had fun here!


                                                                  We discovered the panoramic function of the I-phone: duh!








 David is on the rock behind me!


 After Tunnel Beach we drove 4 1/2 hours to Christchurch.  
Below are a few pictures of our drive.


We were told by the owner of our Bed and Breakfast that we "had" to stop at Moeraki Boulders.  Saw some neat rocks....and then got a coffee to go!






 Farms here have hedges around or dividing parts of their property.  They are 15 to 20 feet high and incredible looking. 
We fly back to Australia in the morning and then home the following day!!!
