The monster hedges they have as windbreaks. Who trims these things?
Trusty pink car seat and our super travelin girl
Cathedral square
We woke up to another day of cold and rain. So, it was a museum day. The Cantebury museum is right next the botanical gardens and was a great way to spend the day. It covers a lot of the history of New Zealand with interactive exhibits. You walk by displays of Maori tribes, a cave. They have one section on transportation you can climb on an old bike or get in a stage wagon. They also have a mini- Victorian Era Christchurch you can wander through. Upstairs they have a discovery area for kids to play in and other displays.
Afterwards, we headed to the center of town, Catheral Square and had lunch. Then it was nap time, but we didn't have a hotel to go back to, so we just drove around for a few minutes until Lil fell asleep and then we found a quiet road in a park to park on so she could sleep.
After naps, it was time to get the rental car returned and get to the airport. The start of the journey home. We were able to spit our flights up, so Tuesday we just flew back to Auckland where Lisa was waiting with the trusty red car. One last night at Lisa and Ian's house! We had dinner from their favorite curry resteraunt and got to hear them practice some for their Maori concert the next night and shared stories of our South Island adventure.
