Summer in Wellington, New Zealand
A perfect day, no clouds in the sky, no wind, moderate temperatures, and Wellington.
A walk to Moore Wilson's the French-style chacuterie, market, and patisserie, all blended into one busy-one. So we bought truss tomatoes, French brie, and a local baguette, and walked home around the waterfront, where there was a market, all kinds of buzz, and a sense of public happiness.
At home, a bottle of Marlborough sauvignon blanc was opened, and our bounty spread on the table.
Freshly caught flounder at night, with a glass of a light French merlot. All this, and the Black Caps playing the invincible Indians in the stadium.
What more could one want?
