DUNEDIN AN ELEGANT CITY ~ A 6 6 2 SONNET ~

ANGELA & BRIAN



DUNEDIN is a very Scottish City

Statue of ROBBIE BURNS ~ Haggis in the shops 

And the Droan o' the Pipes !

The Schoolchildren all wear Tartan Uniforms ~ but

None of those we spoke to

Has ever visited the Auld Country !

 

DUNEDIN is a great Tourist Centre

For its Architecture ~ Museums & Art Galleries

Good wholesome Food and Wine & Beer ! 

It has an excellent Harbour for Sailing.

Its climate is cooler but drier than Auckland.

NEW ZEALAND gets cooler as you travel South*

 

Here one can see    Penguins ~ Albatross ~ Seals & Sealions

It is the home of NZ's First University ~ 20,000 Students !

 

Thanks for visiting ~ Comments welcome ~ Love A & B 🧡🧡🧡

 

* Today it was 18C (64F) in Dunedin and 20C (68F) in Auckland

We have really enjoyed our day on Dunedin its now 7:30pm and

we are just going out for Dinner. Moving to Milford Sound next !

      Such a shame about the 'Droan o' the pipes' but at least they are playing the tune that I want them to play, "Far Away" and the farther away they play the better and in Dunedin that surely cannot get much farther away.

      You are obviously having a great time, enjoy.

        Thanks Uncle Andy ~ YES the BP's are an acquired taste ~ I was in a Scots Scout Troup in Liverpool and we would wake everyone up at 9am Sunday with the Pipes on the Church Parade ~ plenty of good scouse humour and a few misles ! I didnt include the Dunedin Pipe Band but I have added a Back-packers video ~ please check. Its 9:30pm (Thursday) so we're of to Milford Sound Early in the morning !
        Blessings & Love in the Spirit to YOU & JOYCE
        Your Good Friends ~ ANGELA & BRIAN 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡

          Grazie Laura Nostra Amica Bella ! Nostra Vacanze en NEW ZEALAND e eccelente ! Dunedin is a very elegant City and the food in NZ Ristoranti is always excellent. We has Lamb & Shalotte Pie with KOUMERA (NZ sweet potatoes) and as in NZ always three veggies. Then Pear Crumble ! The NZ Rose goes well with LAMB ! We have been separated by 11,500 miles for eight months so we have a lot of *quality time* to catch up on ! Its nearly 10pm so an early night and a 4 hour drive to Milford Sound in the Morning ~ AMEN
          Abbracci e Baci per tu !
          Con Amore ~ ANGELA e BRIAN 🧡🧡🧡🧡

          Such an interesting read for those like me who have never visited the fine city of Dunedin or the Land of the Low Cloud - - -- did not know either that this part of South Island was so very Scottish - - bagpipes and all !!! Have another great day of your trip you two lovelies.

          • ANGELA & BRIAN

            Thanks for your comment FAY : BRIAN & I are very blessed to have the opportunity to explore the South Island together. I am finding it diferent from N Island. More space : fewer Maori and much more hilly and cooler and windier ! Autumn (April - May) is a good time of the Year to visit S Island and Brian could get the time off and travel 12,000 miles to be in Dunedin ! It really must be LOVE ! We try to supply some information each day to whet the appetite of those who (as yet) have not had the opportunity to visit ! We are enjoying every second of being here AND being together !
            Blessings & Love
            Yours ANGELA & BRIAN 🧡🧡🧡🧡
