Hi everyone
Wet and dreary Christchurch on the friday afternoon was little better on the saturday morning. Enjoyed a good walk along the river and through the botanical gardens. All that was needed was a good imagination. The gardens on a warm and sunny day would be heavenly. dappled shade, birdsong, water tumbling/ like I said, all it needed was a good imagination.
3 hour flight to Sydney and a further 3.5+ to Perth. arrived here half past ten last night, equivalent to 2 am NZ time. Andy kindly picked me up from the airport and Jane, looking ever more gorgeous, welcomed me to their lovely home. We had to have a welcoming beer and a glass of wine before bed. Slept well, breakfasted with home made Kumquat marmalade on the terrace in the early morning sun. Jane and Ben have gone off early for Bens swimming whilst Tom is with Andy and I this morning before his big swimming gala this afternoon. All very sporty..�
Am now ready to be shown the city so must log off for now. Piccies later..

Hi Bert
What an adventure, we have thoroughly enjoyed your reports and pictures and have been checking out your progress on the maps. Your feet may get a chance to recover now.
Will look forward to hearing your stories in person, must meet up when we return from holiday shortly after your return.

Glad you had such a great time in NZ, now for the golf and some more different adventures, and wine of course. Enjoy OZ.
Fantastic photos again, by the way. What a starter, looks like it was delicious.

You just HAD to take the rain to town with you didn't you!!!! Christchurch is gorgeous but does look less than exciting in the rain. If you were walking along the river and were in the gardens you must have pased Christs College....Zacs school. Its right next to the museum. Fantastic place. Pity you had to end your holiday to the South Pacific with some time in OZ. Oh well, at least you spend decent amount of time here :-)
