Cadbury World!

Thursday 9 September 2010

Today, Dawn showed us around town and around the University. The Dunedin University is the major University in New Zealand. In fact, one of Anne and Alister's sons is attending this University. We saw the building he goes to. Then we saw St. Kilda and St. Claire which is where the beaches are. There were beautiful views. We went by the Salvation Army Anne and Alister worked at. Then she dropped us off at the Cadbury World. We got the tour and received a bit of free candy. I do have to admit that we were sad that we were not kids. They got so much more.

After Cadbury, we went to i-site to see if we could book tours, but the castle (the only one in New Zealand) was incredibly expensive. Also, going to the peninsula was really expensive, so we stuck around town. We went to the art gallery, which was small and, quite frankly, ridiculous. Sorry, I am not an art person. We then sat down and read for a couple hours. Then we got picked up and got dinner. It was quite tasty.
The Cadbury Factory. We were in the purple tower.

We couldn't take any pictures in the factory, but we got pictures of our fancy hats. The guys with beards had to have a face mask as well.
Don't we look lovely? We even got to try a cocoa bean. I didn't read the sign and ate the shell as well. We got videos of this, but I don't know if I will post them. The flavour was quite vile!

This is the second most photographed building in the southern hemisphere. It is the train station in Dunedin. This is my bed. I felt like I was in a cabinet...or a picture frame.
