Today I had a good workout by walking some steep streets in Roslyn. I walked 9 streets.
454. Littlebourne Road
455. Melrose Street
456. Avon Street
457. Tweed Street
458. Fifield Street
459. Garfield Avenue
460. Pacific Street
The first street I walked was down the hill on Selkirk Street and onto Littlebourne Road whose residents get a good view of the harbour. It was great to realise that I had walked all the streets that I could see on the other side of the harbour.
From Littlebourne Road, I followed the streets that skirted around the edge of the town belt where I had walked a couple of days ago. These streets are quite steep and I had to walk up and down them but they also have some great views looking towards the end of the harbour. .
One of the benefits of walking on the hills are the fantastic views and I am enjoying seeing Dunedin from different angles as I move around the city.
Of course what goes down must also go up and Pacific Street was one of the streets I walked up. It is a particularly steep street with steps and a hand rail on both sides. I was very glad to get to the top.
And lastly this is the map showing where I have walked so far in my challenge to walk every street in Dunedin. I have walked all the streets coloured in red.
