July 6th in New Zealand


The next morning, Katie had to sign in and pick up her supplies. University of Otago is serious about giving their students enough bedding! Katie's about to drag it into her flat.

Soon we were out exploring the Otago peninsula, just off Dunedin. We went to the Albatross center where we got to see a few chicks sitting on their nests. They were huge! We got one glimpse of an adult flying overhead.


The scenery was incredible on the peninsula as we drove on the windy, narrow cliff roads (of course, on the left side), and then along the coast.


The beaches were beautiful and are hosts to the yellow-eyed penguin. Unfortunately, this was one of the beaches that we were NOT able to see them. It was a lot colder that it looks!
