Mt. Maunganui!

Greetings from Mt Maunganui, Tauranga. After spending a night in Auckland, met Aunty Serena.. we went down to Tauranga, to my sis's house at Mt. Maunganui. It took 4 hours on a Intercity Bus from Sky City, Auckland to Tauranga town.

Had my first Fish N Chip, from the most famous one of course. Fresh Fish Market @ Tauranga. They have loads of other seafood menus..but sadly..im so poor i cant even afford to buy one lemon for my fish n chip! LOL.. just kidding..just saving money and enjoy the natural taste and flavour of the fish itself..
