So last night we went out on Otago Peninsula (about 30 minutes from our house) and walked to boulder beach, were Bobby had heard that we would have a good chance of seeing penguins and sea lions. It was a beautiful walk through the bush and a beautiful beach. We did come across two sea lions catching the last of the sun. As soon as it went behind the cliffs two penguins surfed up on the waves, stood up and waddled to their nests in the rocks. It was one of the coolest things I've seen. They looked pretty big so we thought they were probably yellow-eyed penguins, which my dad says are pretty rare. We couldn't get very close (and Mae said one picture would be enough), but you can definitely tell what they are, it was so awesome. Tomorrow Mae and I are going to Queenstown for a couple days (Natalie got sick so they are staying in Dunedin). Maybe when we get back we'll have some bunjy pictures. No matter what we do it will be nice to have a few days off together.
Cheers, Johnny
