We had a meeting with the Otago International Office at 10:30 Wednesday morning. Luckily, I was able to walk with some other students from my program to get there -- we all know how good I am with maps. After the meeting, we had a short break for lunch before heading back for a bus tour of Dunedin. Our bus driver, Gerald, gave us all the ins and outs of the town. One unexpected stop was the steepest street in the world -- Baldwin St. I didn't even know it was in Dunedin. We all thought we were just going to drive by, but no -- we walked it. That sounds easy enough to walk up a street, right? No. It was definitely the best work out I've had in a while and I had doubts that I would actually make it. Rest assured, though, my not-so-little legs got me there.

After we finished our bus tour, we were dropped off in town to do our own thing. I chose to go with a group downtown to make my first purchase -- bedding. Somehow I was able to fit a set of sheets from home in my oversized bags, so I found a fairly priced comforter and a pack of 2 pillows to top it off. Now, picture about 6 American students carrying comforters, pillows, and blankets (one guy even bought a plant) across a bustling downtown. Let's just say, our attempted New Zealand personas had gone out the window.

I was exhausted after a long day of walking. I made dinner and hung out with my flatmates and headed to bed.
