On January 6th we left the Mount Cook area and headed toward the east coast and the town of Oamaru. It was again a beautiful drive through lupines around Twizel and Omarama.
We visited the Maori rock art around Takiroa and then on to Moeraki Beach. We also observed a few Blue Penguins in Oamaru and Yellow-Eyed Penguins on Bushy Beach.
Here is a photograph of the Moeraki Boulders.
