    After dinner at the colonel's homestead at Walter Peak, we are given a farm tour, where we are allowed to feed the sheep, goats, babay lamb and deer. Beautiful long haired calves and some really cute baby animals. There are also sheep dog demonstations and sheep shearing.

    After 45 minutes cruising the lake on TSS Earnslaw, we arrive at Walter Peak, home of the original High Country Sheep Station, wher you can have dinner in the colonel's homestead. The house is beautiful, in a very nice setting overlooking the lake.

    Well, although I did sit on the bull's back, I can't really say I rode it! The bull is one of the most enormous animals I've ever seen, and it was incredibly placid! Just as well!

    This is a packaged min tour that includes a ride of an old steamer boat, TSS Earnslaw to a hide-away country farm where they show you how to shear sheep's wool and how the dogs how to wrangle herds of sheep. At the farm, there is a nice colonial building where high tea can be enjoyed. The farm is very serene and away from any urban life.
