We've made it to Chirstchurch!!

Hey everyone, we got our car fixed and after almost 2months of traveling we've made it to Christchurch, the Garden City. We've spent the last couple of days looking around and trying to get a sense of the city. In all honesty, we're both not really feeling it. I don't know if it's because we've built it up so much during the trip and now that we're here it's not exactly what we've thought it was going to be. Or if it's because during the trip we've seen so many great places that a big city such as Christchurch doesn't have the charm. I've been doing some looking around on the job boards and it seems like getting a job here would be easier than any other part of the south island, so that's a big plus. We're staying in a great hostel right now which we have for another night. So we're going to do some more looking around and than make a descion on what to do. I kind of feel like, we have a lot of freedom right now, so why not take advantage of it and go somewhere we both like.

Here are some pictures from our last couple of stops, enjoy.

Lucky you! Dearly missed friends of mine have emigrated to NZ about 2 years ago. They live in Amberly.

I wish I could go too...

If I were you, I'd move to a farm and become sheep herders.

Am I doing something wrong? The short video posted by Gay is not coming up.

Also, don't listen to Jeff! Do not become sheep herders. If you need a reason see the gross joke previously posted by me.
