El bianco de Auckland

Our early morning start gave us a full day in Auckland. Dropped the luggage at the tiniest studio we have ever stayed in ... BUT it had everything. A two minute walk to Queens and we were having a full on breakfast. A walk down to the wharf and we decided to just take the regular ferry over to Devonport.

A great idea. Lovely trip over to this "seaside" resort. Great views of the city. Loved just walking, chilling out and chatting to people. Met up with a student from Switzerland studying English. Seemed a bit lost as she had to keep herself out of the homestay over the weekend.

Loved the artwork and jewelry...No No No... our bags are already too full.

Dinner that night was such fun.... we stumbled onto a Korean cafe for students where you chose your food and BBQ'd it on your table. There was an American couple next to us who were as clueless as us as to what we were eating or how to cook it. Tasted good though!
