There were about 7 courses and most of it was fish, including the tiniest cockles I have ever seen. In fact, you would be stopped by fisheries and fined to the eyeballs if that was what you were taking from NZ waters. We also had some very tiny fish, kind of like a large sprat, cooked minus heads, but including tails. Squid rings, then bits of fish, then....... two types of salad, then...... other fish...
So toward the end we had kind of had enough, so we crossed the road and put our feet in the ocean. Well, I put my feet in, Cathy watched and Christine plowed into the tide, only to find that the wave surge was quite strong and she should have stood back just a little more...
The wind was quite strong and as you can see from this well balance Selfie, it has blown almost all of my sad excuse for hair off my head!!!! I look like it is shaved, which I assure you, it is not. Cathy looks happy and relaxed and Christine, looks like her pants are kind of wet and she is coming to terms with how that is going to work for the next hour, until we get back to the hotel and drier clothes :)
This rather cool photos below was a sand artist who had made this on the beach and had put out his busking hat and was collecting money. I appreciate the work involved and the artist ability, so I gave him the four 20c Euro coins that I had! Go Me!! Getting into tipping, one tiny token at a time!
And finally, a taste of the evenings entertainment.......
If you look closely, you will notice he has no teeth.
Also, if you look closely, the lady in pink is a Trump supporter from Ohio. She likes him, but doesn't like 'the language he uses'
