Christchurch - the final stop on our South Island trip! Chrischurch was actually a lot nicer than expected with real nice city square, river and botanic gardens. The weather was good and hot so we did a punt down the river (how romantic) and also kayaked on it which wasn't quite so romantic as it had a squint and we could only go left!

We also met up with Dave and Wendy, old friends of Thomas' from uni, while we were there. They are currently working there for a few months while travelling so it was good to see them and swap stories and we even got a lift to the airport the next day from "Thor" their very friendly car!

So on the 28th we left the South Island and arrived in Auckland for our trip around the North Island - by bus, yuk!
