What a great trip to Dunedin! We were a little worried about the weather since a Cyclone was arriving up North and headed down to the South Island. Anyway, we decided to go anyway and left Friday morning early via Jetstar direct to Dunedin. Friday was raining all day but stopped late afternoon. We took in the Otago Museum and had some Chinese food and relaxed in the hotel. When the weather cleared, we drove to Baldwin Street (known as the steepest street in the world) and proceeded to walk up it. Aiden, surprisingly, joined us the entire way walking up and we all were exhausted and excited upon reaching the top. Going back down was easier and we enjoyed the site.
The next day was clear so we drove out the Larnash Castle and did another hike to Tunnel Beach. We were carrying Aiden the entire time so it was tiring plus the weather was warmer. The views were spectacular though and we took a lot of scenic pictures. On the way back, we decided to go to Speights Ale House and had a 8 beer tasting of Speights finest. My favorite is Dark Ale while Sona liked the Golden Ale. Aiden was coloring the entire time and occupied with stickers as well. For lunch, we took in Velvet Burger and I had a Vension patty while Sona tried the lamb. Both were really good!
On Sunday, we did a 20 minute tour of Cadbury World and Aiden bought a Cadbury toy truck. Afterwards, we went to Glenfallach Gardens and had a amazing lunch. The area is so peaceful and calm. Aiden was getting fussy because of his nap so we rushed out after lunch and went back to hotel. We went for a walk in the evening and found a decent sushi place. Called it an early night because of our flight the next day. Thoroughly enjoyed our vacation in Dunedin and had a wonderful time!!
