Easter Sunday: 2013 Vintage Car Show at Solway Showgrounds

April 01, 2013

On Easter Sunday, we walked to Te Kairanga (also known as TK) Vineyard, about 22mins walk from where we stay. The Farmer's Market is held on the first Sunday of every month during the summer.


Along the way, we saw the longest rainbow we've ever seen.


Compared to other Farmer's Markets we've been to, this has more free tastings and better quality of food. Try a sandwich from the Greytown Butchery steam train or rosti from the stall next door. I bought five corns (50c each) and got a free zuccini!


We bumped into our friends at TK and tagged along to the Vintage Car Show at the Solway Showgrounds in Masterton. Admission is $2 per adult or $5 for a family. Seven of us went in one car and the person standing at the gate thought we were one family and collected only $5 from us haha!


 The host gives a brief introduction of the vehicle while it parades around the showgrounds. I had little interest in vintage cars though...


Hehe secretly tried to get in for a photo but was found out by the owners moments later whops


The show was held in conjunction with the New Rags Market. There was a wide variety of stalls offering pretty crafts, vintage goodies and food (more free tastings!). It was our last chance to find a decent present here as we were heading to a birthday party in the evening.


Shared a $5 KFC meal for lunch. It has two piece chicken, a small burger, fries and a drink, quite value for money eh?


But the KFC meal was not enough for two person so we were thrilled to see plenty of food at the barbeque!


Yummy Tip Top French Vanilla ice-cream with home-made apple pie for desserts~


Happy Birthday to Frank! Thank you for inviting us. This was the best meal I had in Martinborough!
