Dave & Margs' Travels

After the others left on the Stray bus Dave and I wandered and then booked ourselves on the Twilight Tour out to the Otago Penisular to see Yellow-eyed Penguins ann Albatross. First stop was the Albatross Centre. We had seen them in the Galapagos islands so didn't bother to see them on the nests but did see two or three of the unattached Royal Albatrosses flying about the headland.

Next stop the penguins which come in from the sea at the end of a long days swimming and then slowly walk up the beach to their nest. We were still a bit early to see many of them walk up the beach to their nests but we did see a few chicks waiting for the parents to come home. I think these were the rarest penguins in the world - I am not sure though.

Q so what were the names given to the pair of penguins that made their home in a tyre?

We returned to Dunedin, ate in the hotel bar and made the quick walk for another drink at the Brewery bar.
