World's Steepest Street

Today Max (and Liam) and I went to an iconic New Zealand even. 2013 Jaffa race on Baldwin Street which is the World's Steepest Street. (Two blocks from our house) Jaffa's are chocolate balls covered in a candy shell. Cadbury makes them and sponsors a week in the school holidays (a two week break between terms). 

It made me laugh a lot because Sam and I constantly laugh (and even make fun of) this street. It has bus loads of tourist every day to see this street. It's just a really steep street!!! It's hilarious to me and you can even buy certificates and shirts. 

It was a little anticlimactic when the 25 thousand Jaffas raced down the street. In my American head I pictured massive waves of orange (the colour of Jaffas) but really it wasn't that. Oh well it was still fun. Bubbles, clowns, flags, friends and lots of chocolate made for a great day 

Jaffa race!!!
