Christchurch

Getting ready to gasp...

Daisy and Zach cosy up to the Chalice in The Square.


The old fav, chasing pigeons.

Daisy, Zach and Josh take a rest from bean bag wrestling.

We had a very relaxed five nights in Christchurch. The kids were jetlagged and badly suffering from lack of sleep after the excitement of Singapore so we had a couple of 15 hour sleeping until midday marathons. Nice. In between all the sleeping we managed to fit in catching up with Ol and a very pregnant Rosie and also see a few friends which was great. We had lots of meals at my favourite vegetarian restaurant (happily, it was over the road from our hotel) which I enjoyed. Zach wasn't so sure though and spent one visit bellowing 'I want sausages'. Eeek. I also had a lovely evening out with Katie and Lesley.

The kids were shocked by the cold, Daisy coped pretty well as she was thrilled to be stepping out in her winter wardrobe but Zach would often stand in the hotel foyer sobbing 'I don't want to go outside, it's too cold, it's freeeeeeeezing'. Sebastian was very cute and as happy as usual all rugged up in his Baby Bjorn but would gasp and give little squeaks when the arctic wind blew in his face.
