A Day Up In the Hills of Christchurch






So today was a good day as you will see from our pictures. It's late winter, very early spring here in Christchurch so we were pleasantly surprised to have a warm, windless 18 degrees Celsius day. A perfect day to take the gondola up to the hills just southeast of town about 8 kilometers. It's a quick ten minute drive up the gondola and the views let you truly soak in your surroundings. The outdoor living will be easy....
We also saw a nice house today out in Bryndwyr. Smaller, cheapish and very sweet and cozy. We put in our application and now we wait to see if the landlord takes a shine to us. She is a nurse so we have that going for us...which is nice (movie reference anyone?). To cap it off we also did some window shopping for some bikes and found the store where we will be purchasing ours. John Bull Avanti Plus is the place to go in Christchurch in our estimation! Super friendly and the always appealing good deal. Enjoy the pics and once again stay tuned. As an added clue to the internal movie reference remember this line: "A big hitter the lama.."
