Cath-J

From Oamaru.. we drove heading to our last destination for that day, Dunedin. Passing by Palmerston.

Before I continue.. I wanted to recall the moment we got summoned from the police officer at 1 of the town we passing by.. haha.. I can’t remember which town.. But definitely the earliest day of our journey.

You know we as Malaysian are ‘Buta had laju‘.. I dare to say 90% of us (Yes.. including me.. sometimes.. :p) will not follow the speed sign which standing just on the road side. I always saw high way with 80km/j.. people will drive like 100-120km/j.. I think if you drive with 80km/j people might honk you asking you to be fast… hahaha.. that is Malaysian.. *Sigh*.. Naughty!

So as usual.. we the Malaysian driving crossing this 1 town.. suka hati mak bapak… drive laju2.. O.+.. if in town you will see their sign will be at 50… but my hubby and his brother was driving at 70… suddenly we heard police car siren from the back.. We have to pull over..

The big size police officer came to us and give a long lecture.. haha.. No reminder… straight give summon.. $175 per person (Hubby and his bro both kena).. (x 2.5 our money.. oh mannnn).. From that moment on we are so phobia with the speed sign board.. No wonder others driving so slow while crossing town.. haha..

From that moment we been a good driver.. haha.. I laugh at my BIL.. we were driving crossing a town.. no car around only us.. the speed sign said 50.. we felt like stupid driving such in a slow motion.. my BIL said ‘.. wuahhhh… like this, can make coffee… fried egg.. some more’.. hahaha…

The smallest speed limit numbers we gone thru was 30.. imagine you have to drive like that… even tho’ there was no body.. we still follow because.. never know their police officer hiding somewhere..

[DUNEDIN]

Along the way moments.. top pic.. I think the cloud are weird. Lower left pic.. In the middle of no way, no toilet my boy crying wanted to pee.. *sigh*.. Sometimes ask him to pee in the bottle but he say cannot come out, so have to stop somewhere to release him.. O.+. Lower right pic.. Fossils area.. Visiting time was over so we are not able to enter..

We reached Dunedin on the evening. So we check in to our motel.. have dinner and rest.. because we are traveling again on the next day. Photo above was taken during our checking out time.. So pardon with the messy house.. haha.

Picture above showing.. the top was the office, lower left was the rooms and on the right side was ours.. that was the living area.. the place have 2 rooms.. complete with kitchen and living.. as usual the worst was having only 1 toilet and the shower was inside.. O.+

Our room..

(Personal note: Saw 2 people.. looks like Malaysian (1 was a lady with tudung).. the way they talk also Malaysian.. but did not have a chance to say Hello)

Once checked out.. we went for a small tour at some spots here. Dunedin is the biggest city in New Zealand. houses and buildings are near by the sea.. sea or lake? May be both..

A view of their city..

Stopping by near the lake.. that day was very windy and cold..

My boy chasing the seagull..

Next we heading to the Royal Albatross Center to see Dunedin city on higher spot.

It was very very very windy.. Not safe for very skinny people.. even I almost flew by the wind.. I managed to go out and visit the center.. and go back to the car.. even our car was shaken hard by the wind.. freaky moment..

Managed to take few photos of the view from top..

 

We went higher on the hill.. I am actually not so happy about it… but we did.. :s

There is a Nature Wonders.. planning to go for it.. but need to pay and the worst thing was you will need to go with their tour car truck which I think not that safe on that weather. Saw Police and ambulance coming make me think some1 might already injured.. so we canceled the plan and continue with next agenda.

Before that taking picture of the sheep.. so lucky to live with this kind of scenery..

Cute little sheep..

Next.. we go down and drive to another hill to their old castle..

To be continue..
