Taieri Gorge Railway
Last week both families headed out for train ride, through the Taieri Gorge. As we left Dunedin for our 3 hour trip, the landscape slowly changed from lush and green to rocky and dry. Along the way we saw where the gold rush had hit New Zealand, and rugged boulders and rocks.
The train station itself is an amazing piece of art. The tiles on the floor were done made by Royal Doulton. There are stained glass pictures, and the outside is beautiful. The train cars themselves were vintage, and full of character. The girls enjoyed spending a lot of their trip hanging onto their Dad standing outside the train car.
