    • If you are looking for some Maori Art, the arts centre is a very good place to buy something genuine. Prices aren't cheap though, but if money isn't too much of a problem I suggest buying it here. It looks great and the artists at this particular place make everything in front of your eyes.

    • If you feel bored or want to make some new friends, go to Cathedral Square and see if you can play a game of chess with the locals. Some of the pieces are rather big, so if you have little kids, just replace some pieces with them and you might be able to cheat and win, by telling them to move around the board in your advantage ;)))

     Nice one mate! I am totally agree with you. I've been in Christchurch 2 times, but still wanna go there:)    		VeronicaG Sun Dec 11, 2005 17:27 UTC
     I liked your photos of Christchurch. Cathedral square looked so pretty and the Botanical Gardens very inviting! The River Avon seemed an interesting element to the city, too.

     The idea of cruising down the Avon through the middle of the city is quite cool! It doesn't look like there is any white-water rafting opportunities on that river. Excellent photos and write-ups.    		cnango Thu Feb 10, 2005 07:46 UTC
     Nice job Martin. It brought back some good memories of my vacation in Christchurch. And your pictures are a lot better than mine LOL
