I haven't described Hogwartz yet. It is a former bishops house with wooden floors, high ceilings and huge rooms. It definately has a lot of character. i walked into town and went to the Art gallery for a bit of culture. I went on the Wildlife Tour in the afternoon. The bus took us out onto the Otago Peninsula to the albatross colony but there were none to be seen. We then had to walk through private farmland down to a beach to see Yellow-eyed penguins. We got really close to the penguins. We were only three or four feet from them which was brilliant. Then we walked along the beach to see the sealions. At the other end of the beach was a viewing hide where we could see more penguins who weren't as used to people. I counted nineteen penguins on the beach and the hill behind at one time. The weather really turned on us going back uphill and I was really struggling as it was really steep so Tony the tour guide gave me the bus keys and let me wait while the others (there were seven of us altogether) went to see the seals.
