Final Leg of the Trip and Random Dunedin

[ceitfianna]

For the last part of our trip, we went to Nelson and from there to the Abel Tasman marine park. This is just a beautiful place and we had a busy day there. We spent the morning kayaking for about 3 hours with this awesome kayaking company full of fun, interesting people. Then we spent the afternoon having a short hike on the Abel Tasman track, which is one of the most frequented in New Zealand, along the way we stopped by Tonga Island, a seal colony. This colony is an island, and you're not allowed closer than 20 metres. By the end of the day, we were sore, tired and very happy. We fell over in our hotel room, had long showers and baths and a lazy dinner. Then I took a plane from Nelson back to Dunedin as my parents continued on to the North Island. The last set of pictures show why I really enjoy Dunedin, because you never know what's going to happen. One Saturday I walked into town and found lovely vintage cars, so of course, I had to get photographs. Also there's a pictures of a classic New Zealand bird called the Tui or the parson bird. Then I shall stop and go eat since I've been working on this for a while. I hope you enjoy the pictures and a glimpse of this beautiful place, I'm lucky enough to be living in.

And there I shall end, back where I started in Dunedin. I hope you've enjoyed the pictures and leave comments is something doesn't make sense. Now I'm going to go fall over since I spent the afternoon holding my breath for the Eagles and I sadly have to work tommorow.
