Number 8 Return via Dunedin

On Monday we headed out from Queenstown on the tourist road to the old Gold Mining place called Arrowtown.

Then we travelled via Cromwell and Alexandra to Historic Dunedin. It was a much larger place than I expected and the history of the place is amazing. I heard yesterday that My maternal Great Grandfather Dexter came from Dunedin and Migrated to Melbourne on 1880. (From Rob Dexter)
 There we booked into the Holiday park and slept soundly next morning we visited  the Huge Cadbury's Chocolate factory. Debbie is a Cadbury's fan. We say more chocolate in one hour than we'd seen in our whole lives.

After Dunedin we went on to the quaint small town of Oamaru were we saw a yellow stripped Penguin coming up to his nest at dusk.
