We headed off into town in search of Cuba street and some dinner. &nbsp;The city has a wonderful relaxed buzz around it and a great atmosphere. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>After a few beers and fantastic dinner, we stumbled across the Vinyl bar. A place I could spend hours going through all the records and listening to music. Even better the bar man wanted to make some custom cocktails and after chatting about what we like whipped up a couple of delights. A fantastic evening and we left full of song and a very good mood<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/britswissmix.files.wordpress.com\/2015\/12\/img_1122.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/britswissmix.files.wordpress.com\/2015\/12\/img_1122.jpeg\" alt=\"\"><\/a>&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/britswissmix.files.wordpress.com\/2015\/12\/img_1121-1.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/britswissmix.files.wordpress.com\/2015\/12\/img_1121-1.jpeg\" alt=\"\"><\/a>&nbsp;<br \/>\nThe next day we headed to the Te Papa museum on the harbour. Whilst this was brilliant it was hard to stay long as the weather was so beautiful. We left following the sound of music of a busker on the harbour. We sat chilling for a while and laughed when hearing Christmas songs being sung in the sunshine. The harbour is lovely and great to stroll around, so we spent quite some time where before going to catch the cable car up to the botanic gardens<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/britswissmix.files.wordpress.com\/2015\/12\/img_1128.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/britswissmix.files.wordpress.com\/2015\/12\/img_1128.jpeg\" alt=\"\"><\/a>&nbsp;&nbsp;<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/britswissmix.files.wordpress.com\/2015\/12\/img_1129.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/britswissmix.files.wordpress.com\/2015\/12\/img_1129.jpeg\" alt=\"\"><\/a>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<br \/>\nThe gardens we nice Andalusia the fragrances and sun quickly made up our minds to walk around and back down to the city rather than getting the cable car back. Our afternoon was much the same, relaxed and lazily wandering around town taking in the sights and tasting the local craft beers.<\/p>\n<p>We spent the night at the cinema. The most beautiful Art Deco style cinema with cocktails and meals you could take it with you. I got the giggles when one guy had what looed like a 3 course meal to watch during the film.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Next morning we were off to Napier. Just one night there which was probably a good job as the room we had had a giant spa in the room and balcony that looked out to the sea. Don&#8217;t think we would have seen much of New Zealand if we had stayed longer<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/britswissmix.files.wordpress.com\/2015\/12\/img_1138.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/britswissmix.files.wordpress.com\/2015\/12\/img_1138.jpeg\" alt=\"\"><\/a>&nbsp;&nbsp;<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/britswissmix.files.wordpress.com\/2015\/12\/img_1137.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/britswissmix.files.wordpress.com\/2015\/12\/img_1137.jpeg\" alt=\"\"><\/a>&nbsp;Napier was a cool place with all the Art Deco buildings and beautiful esplanade, sunken gardens and fountains.
