Day 43 — Fishing in Kaikoura

Jamie loves fishing. And the town of Kaikoura has an abundance of fishing boats which are eager to take you out to fish for your dinner. There are also whale, dolphin and albatross watching tours, but for us it had to be fishing! And sure enough, it was just plain awesome. See our catch! And yes, it was most delicious. We walked with our fresh caught fish just into the next door chinese eatery and they prepared it for us. Best sea perch ever! And we did see orcas and albatrosses too. Got the whole deal :)
