Have a happy new year!

We are off on the trip tomorrow morning. So last blog post for at least a week.
Catlins was lovely and Joe saw penguins! Loads of yellow-eyed penguins. And got photos. So I am now on the good list again. We drove into Kaka Point and found our hotel – another nice place complete with kitchen, and then went and got a couple of burgers and kumara chips before heading to the hide to look for penguins. And saw about 7 penguins come in. Hurray.
The next day we drove to Curio Bay and saw the petrified forest which was nifty. We stopped at the falls as well, but then had to hurry back to the bay to see penguins. We stayed at the hide for over 3 hours watching penguins come in. So Joe had a good day.
Now in Dunedin. Shipping dive kit back home and sorting out the rest of our stuff before getting on the boat tomorrow. Joe has counted his Stugeron tablets and figures he has enough. I’m doing the laundry and generally sorting stuff.
Everyone have a wonderful New Year’s Eve!
