Moeraki Boulders

A short journey in to the village we found our way to World Famous Fleur's Place. After a brief discussion they agreed to let us camp in thier car park for the night (Right next to the harbour and ocean) as we were eating there that night.
To get our bearings and to kill time until dinner we went for a walk over the head land, however, after finding many sheep on top we realised it would be a long way in the dark to the other side, so we turned round to head back and have a drink overlooking the sea instead.
We had heard quite a few comments about this restaurant, all very good, and as we found out much deserved. As Rik Stein had found out when he went there and apparently said on his TV show - the fish is absolutely fantastic and was all about back to basic cooking. My Monkfish was absolutely spot on.

As we had found out there is only enough hot water in the campervan for one person to have a quick shower. Today it was James' lucky day as he had the full hot shower and was going to be clean. I, however, had half and half (hot and cold!).
Not because of its name but because of what we were promised to see there. We headed of to Shag Point. After half an hours wandering along the cliff top edge we spied many Shags (a type of Cormorant). We also started to spot Fur seals getting up on to the rocks to enjoy the morning sunshine, where they would probably lounge around for the rest of the day after a night on the ocean - fishing.
A few of the Seals seemed a little concerned with our present. Whilst most just gave us a disapproving look, some of the more cautious fled along the rocks and into the sea (sorry!)

Hello little seal
