It's official. We love Auckland.
It rained again today so we sampled the culinary offerings beginning with a cheese platter at Debrett Kitchens. Dairy products represent 40% of New Zealand's exports (as compared with 11% for lamb). The cheeses were spectacular. We tried cheddar, Brie, and a local Stilton.
We then moved on to the Honest Chocolate Company.
Our favorite was Manuka honey and pear.
We walked through the drizzle to the fish market in the Wynyard section of town where we lunched on oysters and mussels.
After lunch we grabbed a cab to The Art Gallery, a contemporary art museum. Loved the Māori Art.
Tomorrow we arrive in Rotarua, which Jessica refers to as Roto-Rooter.
