Dunedin, boys on tour!

As soon as Joe and I arrived in Dunedin, the student city of New Zealand we went for a bit of a walk. A walk that very quickly turned into a pub crawl!

First hit was a English style old man pub, fitted out with drunk 'regulars' bantering with the bar maid as she took to her knees to get something from under the bar. We then went on to a trendy wine bar before going to an emersons brewery bar. Here we grabbed a booth and after a while were joined by a couple, we had a good chat and got some ideas on what to do over the next few days. We were also lucky enough to have a specially brewed beer. Very tasty!

On the way to the next pub we became attached to a group of lads from Dunedin. They took us under their wing and brought us to "the best club in Dunedin."

Us and the other five people in the place had a great time! We had a dance for about half hour before slinking off to call it a night.

We arrived back in the hostel to a party atmosphere. So we turned straight around with our new friends in toe. We went back out and to a bar with a DJ in the octagon (the central circle in Dunedin). We had a really good time. The barman served us all a drink, we enjoyed it, then he said he couldn't serve us anymore as we'd been drinking.... Duhhh!

So we left. Whilst hanging around outside we got hounded by a couple of dim witted locals trying to sell us pot. We also met a hilarious Samoan teenager called Reggie. He challenged me to a downing race with a tinned bourbon cola. He didn't even finish... Too fizzy apparently.
