Decent, not very big supermarket in the city centre.

I give it 5 stars, however, with a minus. You really get amazing views of the Auckland. You see the city sprawling out to all sides. However, comparing with similar attractions in similar countries it is a bit shabby and aged.

The museum is not very big comparing to maritime museums in bigger countries. You should be able to visit it in 1,5 hour. It is however very interesting. Exhibition ranges from Polynesian sailing (amazing how these people navigated with these rudimentary canoes), discovery of New Zealand, immigration (moving decks display)development of local shipping to local sailing.

There are a lot of Italian restaurants in Brussels and it is not easy to keep up with the competition. The food is decent, but not the best Italian you can find in a city. Service is ok. Interior is a bit old fashioned. Wine list is decent.

Airport as such seems to be a new one and to be well organised. It quite small, but serves the purpose. There are couple of shops, cafeteria inside, as well as children’s playground. The downside is that seating is lacking when there are more flights.
