We knew the Steampunk Museum was the kind of place our younger grandson Karol would be fascinated by. There were all sorts of strange things crafted out of old machinery and metal. I know it added to the atmosphere, but the lighting was very low. That makes the photos a bit dark - my apologies for that! I have adjusted the brightness where possible.

I've not added many captions, mainly just the photos this time.

There is a room with a glass floor that I felt weak in the knees walking into - you close the door behind you and the light show starts. Rather beautiful, but I am most uncomfortable with glass floors ...

It is pretty cool. To be fair, if I hadn't wanted to send Karol some information about Oamaru, we would not have gone. And I am glad we did.

Steam Punk is certainly quite an interesting experience. I dont remember the mirrored room with all those lights last time we were down that way, must be a newish installation I expect.
