2010, a saturday
today is waitangi day, an nz public holiday, but very contoversial. we drove from wellington to hawke’s bay and had another fantastic lunch at black barn winery. i had gazpacho and it was exactly what I’d been wanting. we drove on to napier, found a pharmacy, relaxed a bit and watched tv coverage of the sevens. we walked down marine parade, saw the sunken gardens, and didthe art deco walking tour. another very interesting tour, with good architectural info and human interest stories to do with the great earthquake. we had dinner at an australian chain, hog’s breath café, and filled up on ribs and steaks. we caught the sevens shield finals and watched the usa team win! back to the hotel for the night, watched ‘no country for old men’ on tv until I fell asleep.
