Making breakfast at the Tawanui Campsite<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

Someone’s garden fence in Owaka<\/a>, looks like Foghorn Leghorn<\/a> in the back<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

Now we’re in New Haven<\/a>, and decide to go for a walk, it seems like there is a wreck<\/a>, choice!<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

The Catlins River<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

Once of the coolest toilets I’ve seen!<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

It’s high tide so we hope we’re not getting our feet wet<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

Nice clouds<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

What a lovely beach this is<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

My inner Sherlock Holmes tells me someone else was here before us, possibly barefoot<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

JAWS!<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

Getting close to the far end of the beach<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

A sea lion<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

Colorful pictures to be taken here<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

This is as far as we can go<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

So it’s time to turn around<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

And say hi to the sea lion<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

No sign of the wreck<\/a> anywhere, only these whale bones, oh no, it’s a tree<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

Yours truly<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

And again<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

I love the sky today, so much more interesting than a clear blue sky<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

Along Duttons Road<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

Cannibal Bay, it’s cool that the Jimny can get on the beach here<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

And then… a puncture, some &*^#&*$# left a big nail on the road that found its way into my tyre<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

So I need to use the spare wheel<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

We end the day at the Purakaunui Bay Campsite<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

Our spot<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

The view!<\/p><\/div>\n
