Last Days in Christchurch

Gradually we are getting ready to go up north to Kaikoura, our last few days in Christchurch are coming closer, actually it’s monday when we leave christchurch. (For Holland Monday Morning). So we have alot to do yet and still have packages to send home, I have a supply of sweets heading home of course As for the rest the weather here is still good, nice and warm, sunny and very little cloud. Which has the result that i’m slowly losing skin from being sunburnt, but no pain no gain right? :p

We have now been to Dunedin, Queenstown, Wanaka, Lake Tekapo and Hanmer Springs. I likes Queenstown alot… well basically it was all good but queenstown had something to it… Touristy place yes, but still nice location and active.
Dunedin was a nice place to see nature, we saw Albatrosses, Sea Lions, Seals and Penguins. Wanaka was a fun timeout spot there we went to puzzeling world and got lost in the maze. I also went for a walk up Mt. Iron which was good fun, I had a few nice views from the top. Lake Tekapo was a really good place for stargazing which was awesome to see Saturn up close through a rather large telescope, one i’d like to have at home. Of course today we also had a good time at Hanmer Springs, sat and soaked in the Hot Pools.

Well i’ll update again in Kaikoura , Take care for now

Cheers.
