New Zealand - Dunedin Scenic Cruise

Off early this morning to a cruise along the coast of Dunedin.  With a promise of penguins, seals, dolphins and maybe a whale, we happily jumped on a boat.  We encountered wind, rain, some more wind, some more rain ... a few seals, a couple dolphins and lots of birds.  Definitely not our favorite cruise, mostly due to the weather.  Off we go on the M.V. Monarch for a wet and rainy adventure.

 Brrrrr.  Can you get that from the picture?

Emily on the look-out with scout Addlea.

In the back of the boat staying warm and dry.

Some of the nature scenes from the day.  Notice the wet, wet, wet on the pictures.

The next four pictures show a Fur Seal on the rocks ... and then the wave that comes.  He managed to stay on the rocks.  What a guy!

And a couple dolphins ... but just two for a brief period.

Hanging on for dear life ... the boredom was kicking in.

Emily very intent with the binoculars.
