Saturday we walked around Christchurch, which doesn't take very long. We had a good breakfast at the hotel, then spent a couple of hours in central Christchurch, where there are some nice 100 year old buildings mixed in with lots of mundane shopping centers/office parks. We saw lots of overturned and uprooted trees from the hurricane, and also realized it was going to be a lot colder than we thought on this trip. (As you can see from the photos, the city has a very English air about it, although again the photos crop out a lot of the modern mess that interferes with the illusion)
