Andersons Bay Inlet

Founded in 1848, Dunedin is known as Edinburgh of the Southern Hemisphere (Dunedin is the ancient Gaelic name for Edinburgh) apart from the hills it shares much more in common visually with Glasgow. New, old and 1970/80's architechture all sit together in a pleasant city a bit worn at the edges. All the street names are taken from Scotland and many areas of the city are from Edinburgh. The city museum was very interesting in a newly renovated string of old buildings. With loads of hands on exhibits including vintage video games to play, there was plenty of things to look at. We took a walk round the buildings in the city including the lovely train station and churches with a quick stop at the Cadbury factory shop to restock on cheap chocolate. A cruise ship had docked recently and Chinese visitors were buying chocolate as though a shortage was due. Most were buying 30+ bars and struggling with the 10kg+ weight! To walk of the chocolate we had a wander through the excellent Botanical gardens with greenhouse and aviaries. Finished the city with a trip to Baldwin Street, the steepest street in the world with a 1 in 2 slope. Travelled 15km outside the city and stayed in a free campsite set up by the hamlet of Warrington.Leia mais
