Road Trip Journal – February 27, 2015 (Twizel to Otago Peninsula)

  • Twizel –> Portobello (Otago Peninsula)
  • Stop at Takiroa Maori Rock Art Site. Rock art mostly unimpressive but a good place to stop and stretch.
  • Stop at Elephant Rocks. What an unexpected gem! Bizarre limestone boulders landscape. Fun for climbing.
  • Lunch at The Bridge Cafe in Oamaru. Terrible burgers & fish n chips. Nice location & atmosphere. Probably an excellent coffee shop, but to not recommend for lunch.
  • To be continued…

The rock art was mostly unimpressive, but we liked this sailboat
Second stop – Elephant Rocks. A unique limestone rock formation. Used as Aslan’s camp in the Narnia movies. This was an unexpected gem,
Third stop – The town of Oamaru for lunch.
