Oamaru
Arrived on the farm 15 km out of town. We couldn't get down to Andrew and Leanne's house with the motorhome so we stayed on the drive near the road for a few days to visit.
Not much traffic

Andrew and Leanne travel from the farm on their days off to trout fish, and we went in the Jimny to watch.

Oamaru Lookout
We parked up at the lookout and then walked down the track to the Penguin Colony on the waterfront.
Oamaru Blue Penguin Colony
We saw a chick being weighed by the staff from these nesting boxes and seals resting on the colony waterfront
Out and back walk from the lookout
Glen Warren Reserve Walk
We found this walk difficult to navigate because there are so many offshoots from the main walk that looked more like MTB tracks.
Mountain Bike Track
Bushy Beach Scenic Reserve Walk
A lovely short walk, we went down to the beach and saw people collecting Paua and Spotted Shags nesting we haven't seen these shags before.
Oamaru Lookout
We went back to the lookout to finish the walks
