Oamaru

If you already at 21.00 clock goes to bed, you have to wonder not that you wake up at 4.00 clock and believed to be well rested. As at that time still not too much going on, I forced myself to sleep again. Clock at 7:00 I was awakened by a screaming like a buzzard. I looked out the window and saw were four fairly large birds with hooked beaks, strong in the process of editing our chairs.

I tried unsuccessfully to shoo out the window. There was nothing else than in their pajamas outside in the cold to go out and they manually put them to flight. This was only teilweise.Ich took the chair under the microscope and noticed two chairs in damages. So I clicked it and wanted to go to Bush - running toilet.

A mountain crow, as it later turned out, fit my behavior is not well and followed me in a fast Hupf and screaming again. I turned around and ran toward her. Then, finally using her wings and flew away for now. When I came back they were going to maltreat the neighbor's camper.

I had had enough, got dressed and made coffee. Make the coffee used at such temperatures also cause the camper can be a little less cold. Helen drank the coffee still warm under the blanket, and even after they had refrigeration teething problems.

We drove back off first, before we made the beds. This time to Mt Cook Village Resort, where we indulged in the hotel with rippling music is a Continental Breakfast. Here I could then also upload the blog and then had the camper from the sun heats up nicely.

We drove out of the 55 km valley and defeated the route to Twizel. There we went to the big battle scene from "Lord of the Rings", which is under the name "The Pelennor Fields" known. During the filming, which lasted around a month, in an amusing picture of the city to be found. Costumed extras since we met at lunch or in the bars and tell them you heard about the course of battle.

We move the Touriguide suddenly pointed out the Clay Cliffs. Since the nice officer from the GPS device from a "must see" spoke, we took the road and drove over a gravel road to the river. There we walked for about a kilometer and found ourselves in a strange valley with sandstone rocks and pointed towers. As the country had to be traversed on private property, was a small box at a gate, which was fed with 5 dollars.

Then we drove to the Elephant Rocks. This, as the name suggests, resemble to some extent the shape of elephants. You can climb it and you can see in very many stones not only elephants, but several other pieces, which are formed in one's own imagination.

In the background, everything was blocked off. The reason was, we could observe a backdrop of a stone, a city under construction. But not ordinary. It is a city of strip from the movie "Narnia". The shooting but were discontinued due to lack of money and so today there is only half the city. Film in containers and utensils are probably waiting for better times.

Having the film set, which probably represents the home of Aslan, had taken a closer look, we drove to our destination. Arriving in Oamaru, we treated ourselves to a hot shower first. We had after 2 nights camping wild sorely needed. Also, it was time wiedermal the laundry done.

At half past seven we were off to see the yellow penguins that go here before sunset on land and climb up the steep hill to their young. Sea lions also played in the water or lying lazily on the beach. Pingus were not many, but the sunset and the water birds fly past in formation, making this a special experience.

Then we went again to the city and stopped at a proper restaurant. In addition to vegetables, fish and meat, there was finally a real Ristretto also, as I had him since the start of travel no longer had. Then we returned to the campsite and found that the clothes laid out in the camper, despite not tumble dry. So once again into the tumbler and so now we wait until it is dry.
