Thursday in Dunedin

We are nearly at the end of a wonderful week away. Today we had fun at the Railway Station and Early Settlers Museum in the morning; one of the highlights was dressing up as early settlers. Then it was off to Carisbrook for a very impressive welcome, followed by lunch and a look around their new school. Climbing aboard the buses, we headed off to Edgar Sports Stadium for our sports challenge. Beckenham played superbly and displayed great sportsmanship. The result was 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss, so the trophy comes back to Christchurch. Next stop was the long awaited  Cadburys visit, yum! Thanks to Tim, we finished the afternoon with quick tour around Forsyth-Barr Stadium, pretty cool. Right now we have some kids at the beach and others tuning up for the camp concert. We'll see you all tomorrow around mid-afternoon. Check school-links in the afternoon for our ETA.

The Railway Station was a sight to behold.

The Early Settlers Museum held many treats.

It was a hard life way back then!

Great game...

Hair nets, goodie bags full of chocolate treats and now we know how they get the chocolate buttons inside the Easter eggs!

Another fantastic day nearly over.
