Otago Peninsula: Fun in the Sun

This saturday we rented a car, and explored the Otago peninsula which extends off of Dunedin, and is home to cool birds, seals, and sea lions! After descending the large sand dunes into the beach, we threw around the frisbee for a while, then decided to harass the large sea lions. When provoked they will aggressively roar and then chase you for a short distance.

That night we drove up past Port Chalmers to Long Beach (about 30minutes away) to the Cathedral Caves where there was a large party of about 60 people with a bonfire and music powered by generator. Everyone camped out in the cave which was prettty expansive afterwards. I was so cold when i woke up around sunrise that I went for a long run on the beach in the early morning to warm up. It was beautiful out. After returning home I slept most of the day to make up for lost sleep, waking up at dinner to write a short essay for the next day. Another great weekend in Dunedin!
