    New Zealand Day 5 & 6 Dunedin

    March 15, 2025 in New Zealand ⋅ ☀️ 13 °C

    Burns Scottish night last night, great fun and we both tried haggis for the first time, which was surprisingly tasty!
    Today we went to the Farmer’s market which was interesting, Dunedin train station which is a beautiful building, unfortunately no trains today…
    We went to Baldwin Street this afternoon to the worlds steepest street, Lara had been struggling a bit & as hills are difficult normally for her, we cheated & took a taxi there & up the street, but walked down and then just over 3 miles back to our hotel 😉 Beautiful gardens in the way, Ian was happy as we found some mint Tim Tams this morning & then had 2 huge ice creams this afternoon for £2.70 😆😆
    Ian’s also chuffed as we have booked tickets to watch the World Cup qualifier at the Sky Stadium in Wellington for the New Zealand vs Fiji semi final match, where Forest’s Chris Wood will hopefully be playing - only £11 a ticket too! 🙄🙃
    Quiet evening tonight recovering, before moving on to Te Anau tomorrow.    Read more
