Day Thirty Nine Oamaru to Kurow

Spent the morning in Oamaru. Visited the Steampunk Crazy Museum. Lots of old junk welded together

Quirky geek fest place.   Weather very sunny and windy decided to do a short journey and head inland to the lakes. On the way stopped to see Maori rock drawings but they had been removed and only imminent rock fall left. Warnings everywhere telling you not to stand and look for them for too long.

Road extremely windy. Hard to keep 'the beast' travelling in a straight line. Came to a little place called Kurow. It had a small campsite with the Waikiki Creek running through it so we stopped. Old hat photo but gives you the idea. 


We're parked right next to a jetty, clear water, mountains in the distance, sun but lots of wind. 
Only mishap. I jumped into the water and my swimming costume got caught on a nail on the jetty.  I landed in the water and the cossie stayed on the jetty. Result - no backside in the costume!  Very funny. Luckily we're the only ones here! 

Cooking at home tonight - pasta and prawns. Quite remote so hopefully the stars will be out tonight (and the wind dies down!). Q'night possums!
