Moeraki Boulders

Bridget:

Craig and I are big fans of the clockwise direction.  We traveled that way on our “Cross Country Road Trip of Epic Proportions” and we’re doing it again here.  We left Christchurch and headed south following the coast to Dunedin.    Somewhere along the way was a “must-see” natural land form called the Moeraki Boulders.   Basically it’s just a bunch of ridiculously round, large boulders sitting on the beach in a place you would never expect to find them.  As our good friend Al put it, “They look like petrified dinosaur eggs.”   Craig and I had some fun taking some artsy fartsy pics (and a few cheesy ones).  They were pretty fun to jump around on but after a while, the tide came in.  So instead of getting stranded on giant dinosaur eggs, we decided to move on and find a camping spot for the night. 















Next Stop:  Dunedin
