Stephen's birthday dinner at "The Wai" on the wharf in Queenstown

Stephen's birthday celebration continued on Friday with his birthday dinner at Wai, an amazing restaurant, right on the harbor at Queenstown. 

David and Marilyn arrived on Friday so that completed our part of eleven!

Craig and Stephen hosted the birthday dinner, which was very generous, and of course, wrong!  We should have been hosting them!

The evening started out with pre-dinner cocktails at the lower apartment of The Nest.  We all toasted Stephen and celebrated until our 11 passenger taxi van arrived, then it was off to the Wai!

Dinner was amazing!  Two types of oysters to start, champagne, a starter course, the main course, dessert, and a variety of excellent wines!  We don't know how Stephen and Craig are going to top this birthday celebration, but we can't wait to see!

Happy Birthday, Stephen!

A bit of "bubbly" to begin the celebration!

Oysters and champagne!
