Drove from Christchurch to Dunedin today—about 380 Km. Made stops along the way to eat and look at the Moeraki Boulders—big round rocks at the edge of the ocean. The aborigine considered this a holy place! Got to Heriot House in Dunedin about 1700 and settled in. Old Victorian house on the corner of a steep hill. We are on second floor and the car is parked behind and is on the same level (or maybe higher). Went into town, 8-10 blocks, and walked around the “Octagon Square” that the city was originally started from. Had dinner in “The Craic”—pronounced crack, which is an Irish term for fun. I had Bangers and Mash—beef sausage and mashed potatoes, and Kathy had Crumbled Prawns—actually it was crumbed but we could not read!! Kathy did more window shopping, but it is Easter weekend so no shops are open!!!! Back to Heriot House to work on blog and rest! Kinda wondering why no one is commenting on this blog? Go to bottom and click on comment!

Will try again-I have been reading your blog daily and sharing with several. Have you seen any of those deadly spiders or snakes. YUK
I am anxious to see the opals. Did you dig them yourself? Things are pretty much the same at HRMC other than the flu has really hit our staff hard. :( We have a new interim boss coming Tuesday, but again I think he will be dealing with the UR, etc. Have a Happy Easter and hope to hear from you soon.
