Rocky Balboa has nothing on us!

For our last day in Dunedin we were off to the World's Steepest street, but first we had to find our way through the Dunedin Botanic Gardens. A twisted maze of paths, that is probably absolutely gorgeous in the summer, but now is merely beautiful. But it also had an aviary, which always makes for a fun time.





Eventually we did find our way out, but we only got lost again trying to navigate the city streets. Oops, well, 2 wrong streets, a couple of backyards and we did emerge on to Baldwin Street-aka the World's Steepest Street!












We also met a rather interesting old man, who runs the stairs 60 times a day, for as many years. 

Yup, that's him, skipping down the hill, happy as can be.. 

On the side note, I'm back in Christchurch for the night, I'm frantically trying to get stuff together to be ready to leave tomorrow morning for a week and a half, eep!
