Saturday 11th April we flew back to Christchurch. In the afternoon we wandered about the town and then bumped into a guy that was on the tour. The 3 of us went to the cinema at night to kill some time. On Sunday we met the guy again along with another couple and had some lunch on a pavement cafe. Was really nice to just sit and relax. Nothing else was open here due to it being a holiday weekend. Today is our last day in Christchurch and New Zealand. W...

The seals are extremely inquisitive and swim really close to you. I didnt like it when they show their teeth thoug...
