Dunedin


It's a pretty quite town. We saved all the activites for the following day. Then we got up and headed off to a tour of the Cabury's factory. They have about a hundred extra types of Cabury's chocolate bars and sweets in New Zealand. They give you loads of free chocolate so we were quite sick by the end of it and still had a few bars left. After that we got some savoury food and salad in the supermarket. Following lunch we headed to the Speight's brewery tour. I've been on the Carlsburg factory tour which was good but this one was slightly better. It covered a good bit on the guided tour. The also go over what each of their 8 beers taste like. At the end of the tour you get 30 minutes in a bar with 7 of their 8 beers on tap. We did quite well for ourselves in the 30 minutes. I had a few glasses of their larger and a few glasses of their flagship beer which is really nice. Then I had a few glasses of their cider to end. Brian had a glass of every different beer and a few more largers and their main one. I had a taste of every beer our of his glass. Two of them tasted of coffee and supposidly one of those tasted like Guinness without the head. Anyway we were a bit tipsy after that so we headed back tto the hostel to have a few more beers and play some games of that New Zealand puzzle game with the squiggly lines.
