Oamaru

This is the town we’re staying at today and where we spent the evening stalking penguins.  We thought folks would like to see some of the architecture.

When there's a "Snooker and Billiard Hall" you know you're not in Kansas anymore.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And…while Ann went out exploring – I spent some quality time in New Zealand’s only whiskey factory.  It actually went out of business back in the early 1990’s, but they stored casks of the stuff and today are selling it again.  I bought a 1989 cask strength single malt.  Yum!

And a bit of the skyline. Definitely has a British feel.

One thought on “Oamaru

  1. Glad Ann finally tracked down those little penguin devils. Maybe if you had put on tuxes and waited quietly they would have just strolled right past. Or, invited you to join them!

    I’ll bet that single malt was really good. Very cute little snooker/billiard hall. And very fun games to play. Unless you’ve overdone it with the single malt.

    Good luck with the fly fishing. No matter how it turns out, playing with a fly rod in gorgeous country on a flowing stream always rejuvenates the soul.
