That brings back memories. A great spot and very photogenic. I took the shorter cruise from the Milford Discovery Centre. Lots of seals, penguins and dolphins I recall.

In 1987 Baldwin Street was declared the steepest street in the world by The Guinness Book of Records. Located in a suburb of Dunedin, South Island NZ. At its steepest the slope has a gradient of 35%, and NO, we didn't have the time (nor inclination) to take a walk...   |

There are several around here where myself and many others have stalled out and slid backwards with big trailer loads of cattle; that's never fun and usually quite costly.
I have been on a few around here in tri-axle dump-trucks where it wouldn't hurt if you were to run over your little finger with a front wheel.
But I must say, your New Zealand Street is right up there with them.
Thanks for sharing it |

People have always said that New Zealand is the best place on earth to live.
With scenery like that, I would be inclined to agree.

NZ is very picturesque, amazing coastline and beautiful inland forests, and the people are very friendly, laidback and always up for a good time. Having said that, a lot of them move to Australia 😊 |

New Zealand is indeed wonderful. I think people moving here only do so for the weather (NZ can be wet, windy and cold) and the work (more opportunities in Oz I think).
Otherwise NZ offers just about everything one needs for a happy life!
