Steve doesn’t have wireless so at the moment we’re sitting in Starbucks by Christchurch Cathedral having some lunch. We're having a lovely (if slightly cold) time so far. We’ve been into the Cathedral and up the spire - very nice views from the top although by Sydney standards Christchurch is more of a small town than a city. The church was nice inside too and we were particulary intrigued by a wall design comprising lots of little swastikas... the plaque next to them emphasised that they were built into the wall and were intended to represent the orignal (peaceful) meaning of the Hindu symbol rather than that the moustache-sporting-genocidal Austrian guy. Still, slightly bizarre. We’re going to mooch around and then drive around the scenery ourselves after we’ve eaten.
(Little aside; Mark has just spotted a cake in Starbucks called a Chocolate Covered Afghan - he is very amused)
Love from us xxxx
