This morning we cycled along the banks of the Waitaki River and over some rocky creek beds. We are starting to get used to this type of cycling which is very different to our rides at home. 
We then visited the Takiroa Rock Art Site and the interesting historic town of Duntroon.
After a look around town we cycled 6km up the road to the unique rock formations known as Elephant Rocks for lunch.
The next stretch was mostly off road on gravel tracks through farms.
We then followed an old railway line through the Raki tunnel.
Our accommodation for the night was the historic Victorian Burnside Homestead. Built in the 1890’s, it was purchased by our hosts Bruce and Alison in 1974. They opened a B&B in 1995 and it was certainly a memorable place to spend our last night together.
Our room was the original master bedroom with attached bathroom. Unfortunately someone had turned off the hot water system so it was cold showers for most before our dinner served by Alison and Bruce in period costume.
