Fall in Dunedin <photo-caption />

May/03 - A walk down to Boulder Beach on the peninsula - but first, we started out on the Highcliff Track (24kb)

A steep slant to the track at first - better suited for the 4-legged sheep! (33kb)

Not a crowded place . . . it took about 90 minutes of walking to get here (29kb)

A storm came up during the walk - with a chill wind, rain, and then hail! (22kb)

The ocean got rough, and we took off back to the car! (15kb)
