After a not so spiffy day in Timaru we were ready for some fun and this morning we woke up to beautiful blue skies and a lovely port in Dunedin. We had hired a classic Jag for today to tool around round in. Our plans were to see Dunedin and go out to the Royal Albatross Centre.
On our way we picked up Cecil "Paddy" Millar. Paddy is on the cruise with us and we had dinner with him the first night of invitational dining. Julie and I have deduced that Paddy is somewhere between 80 and 85, a delightful gentleman. He left Northern Ireland when he was in his early 20's and move to Africa, then Rhodesia, now Zimbawe. He started out as a farmer and then entered politics and was part of their Parliament . After 3 children they all moved to Australia. His stories are mesmerizing. More of those later when we are at sea.
So, I invited Paddy to come with us and he did.
We started out from the ship and into town to the world's steepest street- sorry San Francisco, but it is here in NZ. It is just steep, not crooked.
From here we go around the Otago Bay to see the Albatross- this is unbelievable !!
From here it was back to the ship by way of their train station in Dunedin, one of the most photographed train stations in the world.
It is also here they do the New Zealand Fashion week and they use the train station as their designer's runways!
All for now
paddy looks adorable enough for ME to hug. love the monster big smile on your face. you look like you are having a ball.
