brooks461 > Crayfish.  One could buy a half crayfish (cooked) for $40 NZ.  But not us.
Giant critters on the roof were often used for advertising.
brooks461 > This is Route 1, the main North-South roadway on the east coast.  Two lanes, the occasional one-lane bridge, and two fords (fortunately dry.  Signs were posted to watch out for seals on the roadway.
brooks461 > This is the ferry that makes the 3 hour trip between the South and the North Islands.  We didn't go on it, but this view is from Queen Charlotte Drive, a very scenic road, full of hairpin turns with dramatic vistas at each one.
brooks461 > Havelock: a fine place for a long black (cup of coffee)
brooks461 > Havelock is famous for its farmed "Green Lipped Mussels" (a trade name). So of course we had to have some.  Note the giant mussels on the roof.
brooks461 > Mussel pies, natch.
brooks461 > These beautiful tables were for sale next door, but we got to use one outside The Mussel Pot for our order of mussels steamed in wine and garlic, with lemon.
brooks461 > The mussels were huge and chewy.  Three bites each.  Pretty good.
brooks461 > Astonishing color in one of Marlborough Sounds, as viewed from Queen Charlotte Drive.
