Day 5b-Dunedin (by Lindsay)

While Steve was visiting Speight's brewery, Millie and I went and explored the city centre and the octagon.
We visited the First Church of Otago which is a Presbyterian church with amazing stain glass windows, detailed sculptures and altar. We had a lovely chat with the pastor who went through the history of the building and area.
We then had a play in the gardens where we noticed the fluffy bumble bees, we first saw in Tasmania.
We visited St Paul’s Cathedral and then on to the Dunedin public art gallery where Millie got to create a little art in the children’s area on the wall followed by some shopping.
While waiting for Steve, we played eye spy in the middle of the octagons park.
All of us then went to the Dunedin railway station before heading back.
The trip back was exciting, to say the least with the bus driver texting on his phone all the way on the windy roads that run along the inlet connecting Dunedin to Port Chalmers.
Once we were all back on board the ship, we were all pretty exhausted and had not been sleeping very well. So Millie went off to Kids Club after dinner and Steve and I watched a movie and started to wind down, with an early night to bed straight after Millie got back from Kids Club. Tomorrow would be a sea day and a rest day.Læs mere
