Our aim today was to get to Oamaru as we have not really stopped here before but rather just driven through. We decided we would get there and then see how the day was going.

| Moeraki Boulders |
 |
| The Gooch |
Along the way we stop at
Moeraki Boulders, which we have been to before but wanted to see again.  |
| They are captivating in their roundness |

One that has smashed open with different
layers exposed |
 |
| A whole one that has rolled down cliff |
Next, we stop in Oamaru for a look around and lunch. Finally got our cheese rolls to try. There are amazing old whitestone buildings here with wonderful decorative carved stonework that you just don't see so much nowadays.
 |
| Oamaru is also the NZ Capital of Steam Punk |
 |
| Gardens in main street |

| Parking our camper in town |
We decide to keep heading north and we get to our camp at Timaru Top 10 tonight in very hot conditions, we had to wrap Goochie in a wet towel to keep him cool. The weather showed that Timaru had the high at 33.6 degrees today. No wonder it was bloody hot and felt like a microwave.
