We've had some great weather for photos!



The largest flying bird in the world! This Campbell Island wandering albatross's wingspan is wider than the width of our boat. They came really close and are not scared of humans. They don't know that humans are decreasing their population so much by long line fishing they are threatened to go extinct.



This is an Antipodean wandering albatross (left) and a Campbell Island wandering albatross (right). The Antipodean is larger so has first grabs at the food.



Rachael did very well in her games of pool, probably due to the keen support of Lee and especially her mum.


A lovely day at the beach. Rachael's smile did reduce some what after getting rolled about on the rocks, but that's what happens when you go surfing, right?


This photo brings a new meaning to PPPPPick up a penguin! These Little Blue Penguins were having their feet looked after in a shallow paddling pool.



The tram was a great way to travel in the old days and now its great for tourists and annoying car drivers.
