16th May Akaroa to Christchurch.

Somehow the journey from Akaroa to Christchurch was much easier than going to Akaroa. Maybe we were expecting the worst going uphill and winding down hill.

We both agreed we could live in Akaroa – such a pretty little bay. It is like living in a post card all the time. But it still does not tick all the boxes of what we want for our retirement.

We watched at least 6 chapters of our DVD – Korean soap about 4 legends protecting the king and of course it was part of a love story, they sell movies.

We arrived at Christchurch Top Ten campsite. It was big. Check in was a drive through.

We took a bus to town. Guess what? Not much – coffee shops and gift shops and a great cathedral.
