Day 9 – Dunedin

Great to see Jo in her own environment.  Here’s a picturesque view of Otago University.
Then off up the coast to see the Moekeri (? Suspect spelling here) Boulders.  Again, beaches and sun are simply stunning.
But the best part of the day (seriously) was Eileen managing to get some root canal work done on her teeth.  She had felt a twinge in Sydney and so we managed to get an appointment while we were there.  That dentist managed to send on a referral to a terrific endodontist in Dunedin who fitted her in at the end of the day and gave up his game of tennis to fix her up.  Feeling unbelievably lucky about that.  (Eileen is just reading this over my shoulder and says it was a lot more than a twinge!)
So Jo took me to Baldwin Street – allegedly the worlds steepest street with a gradient of 1:2.86.  That’s me at the top – it was steep!
Off to Te Anau tomorrow and then to Milford Sound.  The scenery begins then.
