This long weekend Dave and I took an unexpected road trip to Dunedin and back in one day. 5 hours there, 5 hours back. What a mission! We were delivering friends to pick up their new car and stopped in Timaru on the way home to see friends.
The church we got married in! |
On the way home we stopped in one of my favourite towns in NZ. Oamaru.
2 and a bit years ago Dave and I got married in Oamaru. In the most epic church ever.
In the last couple of years Oamaru has made a bit of a name for itself as the Steampunk capital of New Zealand.
This is Steampunk - a mash-up of sci-fi/fantasy/Victorian awesomeness.
So they have created a wee tourist attraction which I LOVE!

The Steampunk train coming out of the building. |
So cool |
In proper colour. |
I didn't have $2 so I'm not quite sure what the peep show was all about |
A bit of retro-fitted facade |
Hmm shall we go inside? |
I am stoked Dave and I have the same taste in design and inspiration.
Now we just need a whole bunch of watch mechanisms and brass to steampunk our stuff.
Sorry, a bit of a disjointed blog post today, lots of ideas and cool photos to show you.
when you put money in the train it does cool things too. Love Oamaru too - it's awesome
ReplyDeleteYea they must make so much money - in the 10min we were there I think 4 different groups put in $2 to make it go!
