Seafood Festival


We walked down to the Viaduct last weekend and saw that the Auckland Sea Food Festival was in full swing. We decided to go, but first eat a giant pizza for brunch. This was a fantastic Italian style olive and sausage pie.Why would you eat a ginormous pizza BEFORE going to a Sea Food Festival you ask? Because we weren't thinking, that's why...
So, with a full stomach we entered the main event. We didn't eat a thing, but were highly entertained by people watching.


A fish ice sculpture.
These fish were freshly caught this day, posed on skewers, and then frozen in ice.


A lovely assortment of eel, octopus and other such sea creatures...

Many varieties of sea food, but also live bands, and wine tasting.




A local boat was set up to feed people right on board.
