Assalamualaikum
Pagi yang indah di Dunedin Holiday Park and Motel,Otago.Unlike our previous campsites,this Dunedin Holiday Park terletak dalam town..bukan tepi tasik.Samalah macam Timaru Top 10 Holiday Park & 219 on Johns Motel & Holiday Park,Christchurch...dalam bandar.
Our kids..especially the youngest one,loved this place so much..because it is very kids friendly (with playgrounds...and trampoline!).The kitchen,kabins and all buildings had fun drawings on them..which was very lovely...& lively!
Bus Stop at The Entrance |
Happy on Trampoline.. |
Very kids-friendly,kan? |
After checking out,we drove to St Kilda Beach.Actually,dekat sangat pantai ni..a walking distance.Mr husband dah pegi petang semalam masa kami sampai ke campsite ni.
Angin sangat kuat..dan sejuk.Pasirnya sangat halus,putih bersih.Payah nak climbed up the hill (masa nak balik dari beach)...sebab pasirnya overly lembut..kaki dok terbenam dalam pasir every time kita melangkah.
Beautiful St Kilda Beach |
Angin kuat... |
Naik bukit...pasir jerlus.. |
Our next destination..singgah dulu isi diesel di petrol station Dunedin..$46.
Seperti yang dirancang...kami bergerak ke Otago Peninsula / Sandfly Bay untuk tengok yellow eyed penguin yang rare and famous tu..Jarak Sandfly Bay dari St Kilda Beach adalah dalam 24.8 km.Perlu melalui Portobello Road sejauh 17.4 km..seterusnya drove along Highcliff Road.Perjalanan melalui Highcliff Road ni sangat adventurous..single-laned,berliku-liku dengan cerun di kiri-kanan..rasa macam jalan dari Boh Tea Plantations nak naik ke Mossy Forest,Cameron Highlands ...seram betul..Mr husband had to honk all the way up..takut bertembung dengan oncoming unseen vehicle..
Portabello Road... |
The bay...at the end of the road |
After a while (ha ha sebab tak boleh gostan..kena teruskan perjalanan),kami sampai ke puncak..
Never knew until this visit ,The Sandfly Bay was not named after biting insects but rather flying sand..
Sandfly...banyak di Milford Sound |
We were quite stunned to discover that we had to proceed with a very steep downhill walk....
Sampai sini...belum dapat tengok penguin lagi..kaki dah lenguh..kena tarik jacket kuat-kuat sebab strong wind ....
Sandfly Bay Look Out Point |
Maybe the penguins ada kat sana? |

Kami bergerak ke bandar Dunedin untuk ke Cadbury World (25.3 km dari Sandfly Bay).Kami berjaya parked our motorhome di pasaraya Countdown Dunedin yang terletak betul-betul opposite Cadbury World.Free parking cuma untuk 90 minit sahaja..kami perlu betul-betul set kan masa supaya tak terlajak.
Jom ke Cadbury World |
Dalam Cadbury World,visitors diberikan option untuk pilih Cadbury World Experience (60 mins tour) atau Centre Tour (15 mins).Bezanya...untuk Cadbury World Experience..ada additional lawatan ke Cadbury World Sensory Lab di mana visitors boleh sample chocolates and chocolate-making elements..dan boleh try buat sendiri little coklat Marvellous Creation tuh..Bayaran tiket memanglah berbeza sangat-sangat ye?
Cadbury World Experience (60 mins tour)
Adult $20
Children < 15 yrs old $14
Preschool children $6
Family pass (2 adults & 2 children) $50.........................belum masuk lagi coklat2 yang kita nak beli kat sini,ok?
Kalau nak belajar buat coklat,gi la Chocolate Museum @ Kota Damansara tu...free entrance jer!Coklat Cadbury pun ada jual..hu hu..
Centre Tour (15 mins)
Ni lah je yang mampu kami pilih..self-guided tour..tengoklah sendiri TV & bahan -bahan pameran pasal sejarah Coklat Cadbury ni..
Adults $5
Children < 15 yrs old $5
Preschool children $2
Habis tour tu..masa untuk shopping cekelat...Hati-hati,jangan main rembat jer.Bukan semua product Cadbury New Zealand ni halal.Rujuk list halal di sini ..Sebelum balik,kids request nak hot chocolate drink yang super yummy tu..Kesian budak-budak ni,lama dah tak pekena milo..(sebab tak boleh bawak masuk NZ)
Gambar wajib dengan kereta antik Cadbury |
Ok..then cepat-cepat gi Dunedin Railway Station.Time's running out...kalau exceeded 90 mins parking kat Countdown tu,kena denda $45!Rapid Sight Seeing |
Memang cantik railway station ni,kan?Saling tak tumpah macam bangunan Sultan Abdul Samad kat KL tuh..he he
Awesome Foursome! |
Selesai posing kat luar railway station (sayang tak sempat masuk dalam station sebab timing dah lari),kami bergerak ...menuju ke University of Otago (2 km je dari Cadbury World).Saje je nak tengok-tengok universiti yang tertua di New Zealand ni.Dibuka sejak 1869...jadi dah 146 tahun usianya..Oleh kerana susah nak parking,kami turun untuk bergambar je..Our son dah masuk ke visitor centre university ..and sempat grabbed selai sweater logo UOO.Suka la tew..
Actually,berdasarkan Zabihah navigation,banyak restaurant yang halal di Dunedin ni..ada New York Style Brooklyn Burger (kalau nak makan halal American Burger),San Restaurant (Cambodian),Cafe Nesli Turkish Kebab...malah retaurant Melayu,KL Aroma Restaurant & Cafe pun ada!Malangnya hajat nak cari makan kat Bandar Dunedin terpaksa dilupakan.Memang mustahil nak parking motorhome kat dalam bandar ni..
Jadi..kami jalan dulu...ke Baldwin Street..
Tunggu pengalaman kami mendaki Baldwin Street ...the steepest street in the world!..next entry please...
