I'm deparing Christchurch tomorrow for Auckland, pending departure to somewhere else in the world. I would have liked to visit New Zealand longer, as it's such a wonderous country, too bad about running into that lighthouse...

I've had an amazing time here, seen all the sights, tours, skydove, waterskiied, drank, theatred'd, etc.. I've invited Rachael with me on my next excursion, I await her answer.

I still don't know why it's called Christchurch, there doesn't seem to be more churches here than anywhere else. (or more religious people)...

Christchurch is "The Garden City"... Does any New Zealand city not have a 2nd name?

Here's a picture of a church! (pic)
