Last day in NZ

We manage to get up early, drop our bags at the hostel, wash the van and drop it off all before 10:30am so we’ve a good day to wander round Christchurch, sort through some info from the tourist office for my parents and then just chill out in our favourite Irish Pub for lunch, smashed potatoes washed down with Kilkenny, yum. Rob picks up a big box to send one of his rigs back home in and nips back into town to post it then we head down to the bar which is offering half price beer. By the time we realise we should eat something we’re quite giggly and the poor girl serving has to be patient while we place our order for pizza. We’ve a taxi ordered for 4am so after just 4hrs in bed we’re staggering up for a shower, before heading for the airport and I’m sad to leave NZ behind us for the last time.
