Exploring Oamaru in the glorious sunshine ☀️: Teschemakers chapel, Totora estate, Chinese gardens, Gabriel's gully - still no gold, but plenty of sunshine and laughter. Maybe gold is just around the corner... ✨ Tally Ho wool carders, Clutha valley blossoms, and gold panning, but alas, no gold to be found.
And made it to Glenorchy! 🏞️ Arrived at Headwaters with a warm welcome. Huge thanks to Headwaters Eco Lodge for hosting us. We didn't want to leave!
A bit of rain this morning, but thanks to Pure Glenorchy, we had an amazing trip up to the end of the road in Rees Valley. So much easier than tramping! Pure Glenorchy showed us Paradise...
Now comfortably settled in Arrowtown with a slice of fruit cake and a cup of tea, waiting for the rain to pass. Excited to see what tomorrow brings as we venture up Skippers 🌧️🛣️
