I close my eyes. I can hear the rattle of carriages and the clip clop of horse hooves, the stall holders calling out their wares, the chit chat of ladies as they stroll down the street shopping and the loud banter of men as they smoke their pipes.

The hustle and bustle of old Oamaru is still preserved by the beautiful Oamaru stone buildings with their carved facades.

Purples pirate den. Purple is a super creative gypsy who has a shop in the Victorian precinct.

On Friday we set up in the Victorian precinct. We were so excited because the Extravaganza was right next to a colony of the worlds smallest penguins, the little Blue. Whats more, just across the road was an awesome steam punk playground.

We wandered the cobbled streets and went to a de-lish ice cream parlour with home made ice cream. They even had Licorice flavour.

Also there is this totally suggestible book shop called slightly foxed second hand books. Last but definitely not least there is the steam punk Museum. The portal was my favorite exhibit.

The gypsy kids hit the streets.
