Christchurch
I had fond memories of Christchurch from my time at the University of Canterbury, albeit more than 2 decades ago.
What I wasn't prepared for was the devastation from the earthquakes. Familiar landmarks were gone and I found navigation a bit bewildering at times.
It was, largely, a very sad time for me, but talking to the locals as we (and especially Leanne !) do, we found enourmous pride and optimism everywhere.
Some selected photos in Christchurch, surrounds (mainly at Cashmere and above) and the trip to Hanmer Springs
