Photo Diary of the Deep South

After Queenstown I went and did a tour of the most southern point of New Zealand. First inhabited by Scottish settlers, we ironically experienced some very Scottish weather. Cold, wet and windy for most of the day, then the sun came out towards the end.

We first visited Dunedin, The Catlins Conservation Park, Invercargill and Milford Sound (separate blog for that one).

Catlins Park - Nugget Point Light house and
you will notice the Nugget Islands in the background

Curio Bay - part of what I like to call hippie haven

Rock Forest - home to the NZ blue penguin

Baldwin Street in Dunedin - this is the steepest street in the world!
Somehow I managed to walk it with my bad knee (see bandage on left knee).
