Today the weather has been disappointing - with drizzle after lunch and thick mist over the Otago Peninisula so, we did the city sights today. These included the famous Victorian railway station, a building built in the same grand style as St Pancras in London. Inside are an impressive staircase and stain glass windows. We then visited the Settler's Museum, which has some fascinating information on the early Scottish and Chinese settlers at the time of the gold rush in the mid-1800s.
