Overland from East to West... via Gore

We headed off to the next coast, passing through a few towns on the way.

We saw the rural way to go over a fence,

The bridge at Balclutha,

Some more of the southern island locals,

The fish at Gore,

... and plenty of open road.

Otago Peninsula Dunedin

Another place well worth making time for, we were up here often, just driving through the scenery, the views, the wildlife... the sheep.

It's very gusty of the ocean side, so bring jackets! We loved how the area is designed to be user friendly for tourists while maintaining the space and environs for those who live in the area. Sadly we didn't see any penguins, but we felt connected with nature, it's great to be 'removed' from the city, even if just for a short while :)

Someone needs to help this poor fellow get the twig out of his face... I wonder if he even realises it's there?
