We’ve decided to blow off Christchurch a bit. We’re both too sick to do the walkabout we’d originally intended and the brief time we did go walkabout last night, we both decided we’d seen enough. The Avon River is a little canal. The Christ Church that the city is founded on is big and stony. And there’s plenty of touristy shopping to be had. The later doesn’t hold much charm for us so we’re moving on to Blenheim. That and this sick thing makes walking around in the super cold windy weather none too appealing.  Hopefully we’ll be able to taste the wine we intend to try when we reach Marlborough.

In the meantime, here are some highlights from yesterday’s Big Drive up the south island’s interior. Catch ya later.

Took this one for you, Dad
