Moeraki

On the way South towards Dunedin, we stopped off to visit the Moeraki Boulders on the Otago coastline. They look quite mysterious, bound in Maori legend. They are in fact 'concretions' that formed on the sea floor in ancient times and were exposed from the mudstone cliffs by eroding waves.
