Ow...my head hurts! We woke up very late due to our late night and the clocks going forward. Good job we were staying another night and didn't have to check out at 10am! By the time we surfaced most of the vans had gone from the field! We managed to upgrade to a powered site again for an extra $3, then went to the shop for some hangover grub of pie and chips! Dave sat in the TV room for the rest of the afternoon watching the rugby, while I lay in the van, readin...

Today was rugby match #2! We drove back towards Dunedin stocking up with supplies for dinner and some beer on the way! At the campsite, we managed to get a good spot next to the rugby field, despite the campsite being crowded with vans again! We enjoyed our dinner of sausage and mash (smash!) with gravy - felt like we were eating some proper food again! England were kicking off at 6pm, so we went back to the van for a while and had a few cans, then caught the $3...

Well...last night wasn't as cold as the night before - maybe the beer helped to warm us up, plus we slept with the towels on top of the duvet to try and keep a bit more heat in!

As usual, we drove round for ages, not sure where we could park, although there were lots of cars on the streets around the industrial estate we were in! We eventually found a place nea...

After a FREEZING cold night in the van I got up at 8am to go to the toilet adn found that it was warmer outside!

After a few hours reading the paper and writing postcards, we set off for town on the shuttle bus from the site. Our Speight's brewery tour was booked for 12:30 so we headed there. The tour was a bit longer, and more informative than the Tui brewery tour...

This morning we waved goodbye to our new English friends and the campsite owner as we left and headed into Oamaru. We parked up and went to use the free internet in the library, before buying some postcards. Then we set off for Dunedin and the rugby! We arrived at the campsite just after 3pm. Before that we drove into Dunedin town for a quick look around. We found the Octagon - the centre of town with lots of bars and restaurants and went to the I-Site where we ...
