20170309今天早上七點多起床,幾個年輕外國女人佔據了公共廁所,我們耐心地排隊洗漱,之後去餐廳吃早餐,七八位洋妞已經坐在餐桌上開始吃麵包喝牛奶了,美女們都非常懶,沒有一個美女主動去炒個菜煎個蛋什麼的,

反而是一位長得丑的肥妞比較勤快,她買了很多菜,正在廚具那裡做早餐煎蛋,我們看到一位黑髮亞女不怎麼說話,吃完早餐我們就去房間看書,到了中午我們返回廚房做飯,鳶也煎蛋了,我又碰到那位斯里蘭卡籍貫的老船員古納塞克拉,他是工程師,經常跟著船到處跑,

他曾經在馬士基的集裝箱船工作過,他大兒子都21歲了,他一共有三個兒子,雖然古納塞克拉長得又矮又小,但卻在澳大利亞找了一個高大白皙的白種年輕老婆,讓人不得不相信跨年齡跨種族跨海拔的跨國婚姻不是夢,他老家是康提,我們以前也曾經在康提居住過,所以有很多共同話題,我們和他分享了食物,他很節儉,當我們給他辣椒醬吃的時候,他嘗了之後說非常喜歡。

吃完飯我們又出門了,沿王子大道走到八角廣場,經過啤酒廠,哈弗諾爾曼的賣場和奧爾維斯頓,今天發現了一些新的巨幅塗鴉,畫著一位躺著仰望天空的女人,長發上插滿了鮮花,

旁邊是倉庫超市生意非常好(The Warehouse where everyone get a bargain),我們路過一棟倉庫式的建築,一面畫著一個男孩騎跨在一個男人脖子上,另外一副塗鴉畫著一位拿著望遠鏡的美女,

我們繼續走到《皇氏古建築大全》第27841:但尼丁史倍茨啤酒廠,位於斜坡上的一棟四層高的磚砌大樓,樓下有品酒室和酒吧,英國航海家詹姆斯庫克船長登陸紐西蘭時,誕生了第一批啤酒。他是最早繪製紐西蘭群島地圖的歐洲人,也是紐西蘭釀製啤酒的第一人。

史倍茨釀酒廠有著138年歷史,從1876年開始生產釀造啤酒。在紐西蘭家喻戶曉的史倍茨是當地最受追捧的品牌,被譽為「南島的驕傲」。座落在城市山上的史倍茨啤酒廠,據聞也是世上少數利用地心引力來運送液體的釀酒廠。而史倍茨也是世上其中一家使用貝殼杉木製發酵桶的釀酒廠,全世界只有兩家使用貝殼杉木製發酵桶,

這令史倍茨得以保留百年的傳統味道。經過酒廠老辦公室時,發現這裡仍保持了過去的風貌,桌上還有一台老式打字機。目前該啤酒廠可能已經被獅牌啤酒廠收購了。在紐西蘭,世好(Steinlager)、史倍茨(Speight』s)和圖伊(Tui)等國際知名的紐西蘭啤酒品牌繼續保持迅猛發展的態勢,史倍茨提供非常有趣的品酒之旅,有各種各樣的啤酒,學生的話可以試試不含酒精的姜酒。

史倍茨啤酒廠前面有一幅巨大的老照片,顯示當時的員工站在酒廠前面拍照,一座天橋將不同的廠房連接在一起,旁邊還有史倍茨啤酒廠擁有的一座三層樓的老酒店,叫皇冠酒店,再走到一座煙囪下面的市集,前面是救世軍堡壘(

Salvation army fortress),

我們爬上小山,回頭可以眺望市區的高樓,這一帶相對並不繁華,略顯落寂,我們再返回到八角廣場,碰到兩位穿著藍色馬甲的老年義工站在廣場上發傳單,

一位穿黑褲子的美女牽著一條黑色巨犬,我們走到馬路對面的遊客中心參觀,裡面有各類旅遊景點的宣傳單,還有環保局的介紹,爾後我們路過了台北101餐廳,鼓吹它是最靠近南極的台灣餐廳,出售中華料理,餐廳擺著很多圓桌子,很多中國人在裡面工作。

我與鳶走過教堂和別墅區,上坡經過了一所教堂女校(St Hilda』s Collegiate School), 聖希爾達女子學院建於1896年,它是當地唯一的英國聖公會教區女校。

我們開始往高處走,很快就到達了《皇氏古建築大全》第27843:奧維斯頓古宅Olveston Historic Home,我當時就懷疑屋主可能是從英國南格洛斯特郡的奧爾維斯頓村移民過來的,事後我才知道老宅是英語人大衛席歐明在1904年修建的,大衛席歐明於1852年出生於英國布里斯托爾港口城市,1874年他移民到澳洲墨爾本,也是我之前拜訪過的一個城市,大衛席歐明在那裡娶媳,

爾後在1881年又搬到但尼丁居住,他靠進出口鋼琴發了財。大衛席歐明的老宅目前保存非常完好,就像是19世紀末的一個時間縮影。導遊知識廣博,宅子很壯觀,顯示了那個年代如果非常有錢的話可以做什麼。

家宅隱藏了很多歷史故事、悲劇,多虧了創建人最後一個女兒死後保存的如此完好。頂層還有四個小公寓在使用,滿足了保險公司的住房需求及學生住房。值得花時間和精力來看看,特別是如果我們對那個時期的但尼丁歷史感興趣的話。

通過古宅還可以一窺殖民時代迷人的上流社會,房子完全是上一個主人離開時的模樣,反映了一個富商的家庭生活和興趣,在維多利亞後期和愛德華時代他們盡量保持英國紳士的生活標準。

這裡為遊客們設置了公共廁所!這個地方非常值得停留,可以欣賞建築物的同時了解當時那個年代人們的生活狀況。我們坐在公園裡為此次長途旅行休息一下,當時的停留棒極了,令人神魂顛倒,幾位風姿錯約的女人在花園裡照看花卉,

旁邊的古宅收藏了全世界各地藏品,它是由其最後一任家族成員多蘿西希奧蒙小姐在1966年留給這座城市的,裡面所有的東西都原封不動。奧維斯頓古宅就像一枚時光膠囊,因為它在1906到1966年作為家族住宅後,房內基本沒有改變什麼。它展示了一個富裕的商人家庭在20世紀上半葉的生活。小花園和禮品店也非常有特色,這個古宅離市中心是合適步行的距離,但是這個城市真的非常很陡,類似重慶那樣的山城。

三層樓高的奧維斯頓古宅被一群樹木圍在中間,奧維斯頓古宅是相當有風格的建築,還有後花園,古宅附近有不少蘇格蘭風格建築的私宅,每到下班的時間,市民把車停在家門口取報紙然後進家門的感覺看上去特別溫馨。

緊鄰市中心的奧維斯頓古宅目前是達尼丁非常著名的歷史性建築,外觀典雅、裝潢精緻的樓房擁有35間大小不同的房間,我當時走過來參觀時,還以為是一座城堡,外牆有一個銘牌,介紹了蘿西希奧蒙小姐為了給城市留下記憶而主動捐贈住宅給政府經營的,這在我國就無法想像了,因為群眾一旦將老宅捐出來,地方開發商就會拆掉建新房。

其實為什麼奧維斯頓古宅能使用上百年而依然非常堅固呢?我認為還是建築材料的問題,現在一些國家,特別是沿海城市,為了大量建高樓,居然使用海沙製作水泥(因為河沙太貴且多被淘挖得差不多了),加上鋼筋也偷工減料,自然建的高樓只能使用二三十年就會破敗不堪,唯有推倒重建,浪費大量的社會資源。

我特別喜歡奧維斯頓古宅的後花園,各類漂亮的花卉爭奇鬥豔,草坪上擺放著桌子,玻璃花房內還種植了一些名貴的花卉,玫瑰自然是不可或缺的。

我們在古莊園流連忘返,花園裡有兩個女人在種植一些奇花異草,離開古宅之後我們開始下山,經過一個古宅,看到草地旁邊種植了一株果樹,蘋果都掉落在地上腐爛了,真是暴殄天物了,我們順路摘了兩個蘋果,這附近其實還有很多非常漂亮的老宅,

經過路口,看到一輛1970年生產的老汽車還在路上賓士(車牌是WX1905),路邊停了一長排的老轎車,下山後我們走到海邊,經過了弗雷德里克路,澳新軍團路和雷文斯波恩路,誤入工地,遠處是新建的體育館,碼頭有很多實木堆場,

福塞斯巴爾體育館(Forsyth Barr Stadium)是為2011年橄欖球世界盃賽專門建造的場館。在2015年的賽事中,它承辦7場比賽,其中包括一場16強賽。其實當地群眾非常反感修建如此豪華的體育館,浪費納稅人的錢財,而且使用率並不是非常高。

體育館前面是運河,我們走過油庫和堆滿實木的碼頭,再走到鐵絲網隔開的區域,那裡長滿了野草,只有一條釣魚的人踩出來的小徑,從河谷望過去,對面有很多遊艇,鐵絲網將圓木堆場圈了起來,我們走到盡頭,看到遠處有油罐碼頭。

我們發現前面被封鎖了,只好原路返回到堆滿實木的碼頭,一輛吊車正在搬運實木,後來我們沿著海岸線往體育館方位走,之後沿另外一條小道沿海灣走,有很多跑步者,遇到一位穿著緊身塑臀褲的美少女也在跑步,身材火爆也是鍛鍊出來的,她跑步超過我們了,等她跑完又返回來的時候,她還跟我們打招呼了,又美麗苗條又善良可愛的當地美女。

路邊有很多展示用的老船,沿鐵軌走過油罐碼頭,兩位穿著短褲的美女從我們身邊走過,有一段通往大海的鐵軌被廢棄了,我們還經過了高中生實習的划船基地,一群健美的女生正在北部盡頭划船俱樂部搬運東西,

一些女士穿著蘇格蘭裙子,另外有幾個女生正推著一條非常長的木船往海邊走,海邊已經有一些男生在划船,近二十米長的船上會坐9人,一人指揮,其他人划船,我們沿著鐵軌走,偶爾有火車呼嘯而過,又經過一個化肥廠,又有火車駛過,騎行和跑步的人都很多,

化肥廠前面有一個碼頭,直接通往大海,化肥廠的原材料是通過船舶運過來的。峽灣對面的山上分布著很多民居。

我們走了一會就返回,經過繁華的市區,看到更多的塗鴉,多是外星人的題材。再直接走到超市,購買了兩天的食物,花費10.97紐幣,我們一起走回旅館準備晚餐,出門在外吃是一個很大的挑戰。這次鳶炒了西蘭花和豬肉,我們沒有吃完,將剩下的飯菜給古納塞克拉了,

廚房還有二位少女在吃飯,一個18歲,另外一個19歲,之後外面一下子走進來二十多位少女,都是學生,女生都長得很粗狂,沒有一個美的,她們一起分食烤箱中的食物,在洋妞中出現一位黑頭髮的亞女,還有一位紅毛丫頭,這些相貌平凡的女生的態度和心態都很差,吃飯時都愁眉苦臉,

跟我們之前碰到的兩位熱心開朗的如花似玉的美少女形成鮮明的對比。看來女丑心靈美並不一定是正確的,反而是一些長相漂亮的女人才具備和善的心靈,所謂相由心生。

我們不想在擁擠的廚房看她們的臉色了,洗完碗就離開了廚房。今天下午我就發現旅館一下子多出了很多房間,因為有很多住客退房了,旅館一下子冷清了,安靜了,我去廚房時看到一位比我還高的高挑金髮洋妞正在廚房裡忙碌,這麼勤快的美女還真少見,但到了下午,旅館一下子湧入二十位女生,很快打破了旅館的安靜,旅館也一下子爆滿了。

Dunedin is the second-largest city in the South Island of New Zealand, and the principal city of the Otago region. Its name comes from Dùn èideann, the Scottish Gaelic name for Edinburgh, the capital of Scotland.The urban area lies on the central-eastern coast of Otago, surrounding the head of Otago Harbour. The harbour and hills around Dunedin represent the remnants of an extinct volcano. The city suburbs extend out into the surrounding valleys and hills,

onto the isthmus of the Otago Peninsula, and along the shores of the Otago Harbour and the Pacific Ocean. Dunedin was the largest New Zealand city by territorial land area until superseded by Auckland on the creation of the Auckland Council in November 2010.Archaeological evidence points to the area having been long inhabited by Maori prior to the European arrival. The province of Otago takes its name from the Ngai Tahu village of Otakou at the mouth of the harbour,

that became a whaling station in the 1830s.In 1848 a Scottish settlement was established by the Lay Association of the Free Church of Scotland. Between 1855 and 1900 many thousands of Scots emigrated to the incorporated city. Dunedin became wealthy during the central Otago Gold Rush, beginning in the 1860s. In the mid-1860s, and between 1878 and 1881, it was New Zealands largest urban area. The city population at 5 March 2013 was 120,246. While Tauranga, Napier-Hastings and Hamilton have eclipsed the city in size of population since the 1980s to make it only the seventh-largest urban area in New Zealand, Dunedin is still considered one of the four main cities of New Zealand for historic,

cultural and geographic reasons.Dunedin has a diverse economy, which includes manufacturing, publishing and technology-based industries as well as education, research and tourism. The citys most important activity centres around tertiary education – Dunedin is home to the University of Otago, New Zealands oldest university (established 1869), and the Otago Polytechnic. Students account for a large proportion of the population; 21.6 percent of the citys population was aged between 15 and 24 at the 2006 census, compared to the New Zealand average of 14.2 percent. In 2014 Dunedin was designated as a UNESCO City of Literature.

We visited Speights 200 Rattray St, Dunedin 9016, it is Pride of the South, later we passed by Saint Hildas Collegiate School which is a secondary school for girls in Dunedin, New Zealand. Founded as an Anglican school in 1896 by the first bishop of Dunedin, Bishop Samuel Nevill and staffed by the Sisters of the Church. The sisters withdrew from the school in the 1930s. St Hildas is the only school of the Anglican Diocese of Dunedin. It is integrated into the New Zealand state school system.

It has a roll of approximately 450 girls with around one third of the school being boarders from both around New Zealand and overseas. The school is named after Saint Hilda, a 7th-century English abbess remembered for the influential role she played in the Synod of Whitby. Saint Hilda is considered one of the patron saints of learning and culture, including poetry.Occupying a site bounded by Cobden Street, Heriot Row and Royal Terrace, the original buildings have been demolished and the site redeveloped from the mid 20th century.

Olveston is a small village and larger parish in South Gloucestershire, England. The parish comprises the villages of Olveston and Tockington, and the hamlets of Old Down, Ingst and Awkley.

Built for David Theomin in the Jacobean style to plans prepared by the London architect Sir Ernest George, the house was fitted with all the latest conveniences: central heating, an internal telephone system, a service lift, a food mixer, and an electric toaster, for example. It has 35 rooms, with a total floor area of 1276 m2. Theomin had acquired land on the site in 1881 when there was an existing villa. By 1901 he had bought an adjacent property and in 1904 acquired another. The existing buildings were then removed. The family was in London in 1903 and working drawings from Ernest George & Yeates are dated October 1903.

The building is brick rendered in Moeraki gravel, with Oamaru stone facings and is roofed with Marseilles tiles. The main entrance and some principal rooms face east. A galleried hall rises through the ground and upper floors and served as a ball room.

The Forsyth Barr Stadium is a multi-purpose stadium in Dunedin, New Zealand. At various stages of development it was also known as Dunedin Stadium or Awatea Street Stadium, or its non-commercial official name during the 2011 Rugby World Cup and 2015 FIFA U-20 World Cup, Otago Stadium. It is also known colloquially as the glasshouse due to its resemblance to a horticultural hothouse. The stadium was opened by New Zealand Prime Minister John Key on 5 August 2011, replacing Carisbrook as the home stadium of the Highlanders team in Super Rugby and the Otago in the domestic ITM Cup. The stadium hosted four matches of the 2011 Rugby World Cup, and after hosting Elton John in November 2011 hosted more major music events in April 2013, when Aerosmith and Paul Simon performed in New Zealand for the first time.
