TRAVEL TUESDAY – COROMANDEL, NEW ZEALAND

Passing through the pleasant town of Coromandel, we stopped at the Coromandel Cafe for lunch, then the picturesque Coromandel Mussel Kitchen for a second irresistible bite to eat. They have a great and very interesting menu, with the focus, aptly, on mussels. We sat outside in the lovely park-like setting, enjoying the gorgeousness of the day and their specialty, shellfish.

Our next stop was in Thames, where we encountered a disappointing bakery, but found a scenic seagull.
