Arrived in Christchurch and got on another bus to South Shores (only 15 minutes away). We are going to be staying at our friends Hayleys friends house (she is house sitting). Lovely area. The house is right next to the beach. We are going to spend the weekend here. 2 of Hayleys other friends are here so should be a good laugh. Thursday afternoon: All had a walk along the beach, even though it is winter the sun is shinning. Then had a walk along the pier - which is called brighton pier! haha, like being at home. Bit nicer than brighton beach here. Went to cinema to watch Star Wars (not my choice) was ok. Friday: Went for a lovely run along the beach this morning, oh I would love to live somewhere like this. Weather is good again, sun is shinning. Hayley got a new car so we drove to the city to have a walk around.
