    Set our sights on Oamaru to visit a larger penguin colony. Only 56 miles or so away. Ride highway 1 but it has a nice shoulder. Stop for strawberries at a converted church. Then fall upon a beautiful gourmet cafe. Eat some sustenance and carry on. Able to get off the highway for a bit. Make it to Oamaru - phew! Head to brewery for pints and pizza. Sadly viewings for penguins returning to land is sold out. Stake out a spot on the beach. Only see them as we walk back to our campground.Read more
