New Zealand - Dunedin, Lakes Tekapo and Pukaki, Akaroa and Christchurch In the last stage of New Zealand we made our way from chilly Queenstown to Dunedin which is all the way over on the east coast. Then we drove up the coast, stopping off to see the amazing boulder rocks and headed inland where we spent the night freedom camping by Lake Tekapo. After admiring both lakes in the morning we drove towards Christchurch, stopping off at Ashburton for a free game of ...
