Commentary was fabulous, food on the trip was great. Sadly the Dunedin side of the Taireri gorge is pines,gorse,and broom. The river has clearly been disturbed by activity up stream..it was dirty. Nothing I have seen in a NZ mountain river. Probably logging. Rail engineering and construction is amazing and the high country stop was a highlight.
Beautiful building and garden outside. Great for pictures. Has an art gallery. Unfortunately you can't hop on a train to different places in Dunedin.
We had a great time on our Dunedin Railways tour! They had a nice lunch box for us that had a sandwich, a sweet treat, some cheese, and crackers and also had water.nnBob was our tour announcer as we saw the great sights of Dunedin and he was a nice gentleman that had a great personality and contagious smile!nnKenzie also made sure that everyone was doing well on board and having a great time!
I treated myself to a trip on The Stargazer from Dunedin to Hindon and back. The trip didn't disappoint, from arrival where staff from Tuhura Museum helped everyone get their stargazing apps up and running to getting off at the end.nnPrecinct at the Tuhura Museum provided us with a great tasty 3 course meal. It was much appreciated by everyone from the comments I could hear from the seats around me. The lamb was magnificent and went well with my glass of wine.nnOnce we arrived at Hindon, they divided us into 3 groups, and we attended the different workshops on offer. My favorite was looking through the telescopes provided by The Beverly Begg Observatory. It was pretty special getting a close-up look at our celestial neighbors. Much kudos to them as they had been waiting up there in the cold for us all to arrive in our warm and comfortable train. I keep thinking about the beautiful Jewellry Box constellation with all the different colours. I'm now looking at the night sky differently. Thank you to all who took part in teaching us about our skies.nFinally, sated and tired, we hopped back on our warm train to travel home.nBut they weren't finished with us yet. On the way home,we got to listen to astrophysicist Michelle Thaller answer questions that we had put to her earlier. She covered everything from going to Mars, Aurora, and pineapple on pizza. She has a great way of putting information that sticks with you and is fun.nnIt was a fantastic night, and if you have the opportunity to go on this trip, I couldn't recommend it to you highly enough. Just go and enjoy a great evening adventure.
We had the opportunity to stop here and walk around.nIt's so beautiful inside and out.nThis place is definitely somewhere you should stop and check out.
