Today we drove up to Dunedin, I was SO excited to see the penguins, as we were driving through Dunedin I was excited about any moving thing on water thinking it was a penguin but it wasnt and I was getting a bit sad! We then pulled up to 'Penguin Place' and realised that we had to pay for the tour to see the penguins. After much delibration we decided we would do the tour cause we had driven all the way! In the end it turned out to be super cool! We first got taken the Penguin Hospital, where 5 little penguins where in there that were either too thin from the wild and they fed them there! We were then taken on a bus called the 'Penguin Reserve Bus' to this beach thing, we walked through trenches they'd set up and we saw no penguins, I was getting a bit annoyed then suddenly these little penguins appeared! They were super cute! Loads of little penguins running around in the wild!! We also saw furry sea lions!
In our group we had loads of japanese people with their big cameras wanting to take photos of EVERYTHING, and then we had another couple who absoloutley bummed penguins, they had spent the whole day penguin hunting and they were not cool, I was happily chatting to the penguin and the man told me to 'SHH', he was mean!! I continued my conversation with the penguin anyway :)
We then headed into town, got some dinner and finally found some fuel, and then attempted to find a campsite, we finally found one and the nice receptionist man told us all about these glowworms that were a walk away! It was really dark so we decided to go for a walk, I was a bit scared, Adam wasnt, but then we got to the glowworm wall, it was super coool! It was pitch black and the whole wall was lit up by these little green and blue glowworms! It was lovely. :)
