Lantern Festival at Albert Park

Lanterns, food and music in Auckland City.  Albert Park and Princes Street were overtaken by the festival.  Just three photos in this post in an attempt to give you a taste of what was going on.

The first photo gives a hint that this year is the year of the rabbit.  Quite lovely and beautifully made lanterns in a huge range of colours and shapes.

As for food ... well ... you name it and it was for sale.  I was amazed with the range of options and it was all being cooked on the side of the street.  Talk about fresh!

Music was good too.  The last shot shows a fantastic instrument.  The gent must have very long arms to reach all the frets!

All in all a great night out and it was free too.
