New Zealand Day 7

We spent our last day in Christchurch. The weather was much better this time and we had a relaxing tour of the downtown area. We got up super early and took a flight from Queenstown to Christchurch, then took a cab to our Downtown Hotel.


We rode the old street cars around down town.
Here is Christchurch Cathedral, Cathedral Square in the center of town.



More Cathedral Square.


Cruising around on the old trolley.




This used to be a college or university, I can't remember the name, but its lots of things now including shops, restaurants, theatres, craft centers, Canterbury English School, and more.



Some funky bamboo art. I hope they didn't pay too much for it.


We went to the Canterbury Museum and I made some new cave woman friends.


Having fun on an old bicycle, how did people ever get on and off of these things?



I think I need a bit smaller front wheel.



Will was asking for directions.


Making friends with the locals.


Sharing some modern culture with our new friend.
