Something I had been meaning to do on previous trips was to visit Glenfalloch Gardens on the Otago Peninsula – sadly I didn’t get around to it, however this trip we did. Last time I was there was when I was a kid, and all I remembered about it was the peacocks wandering around the place – we saw no peacocks this time, but I don’t know if it’s because we didn’t explore the whole place, or if they just don’t have them there any more.

We started out (oddly enough) at the main entry, looked at the bridal garden (where Jing must have left the map), and then went on a long walk up to the top of the hill – not good for my tibial stress fracture, but there you go. By the time we returned, we were too exhausted to look around the main area any more, so it’s still a bit of a mystery to me.

One observation – I literally think we saw more bees in the few days in Dunedin, than I have seen in 14 years in Sydney … odd. Plenty of bees seen elsewhere in NZ also.

Enjoy the photos …
