We have been in Christchurch, New Zealand for almost 2.5 months, since the end of January. Life seems to have got busier, or at least I seem to have less access to my computer, though that may have something to do with Thomas using it for Roblox and You Tube viewing.
Hannah has started school here. It was strange at first only to have Thomas around all day. It means we are a bit more restricted, as we aim to be back at the house for 3pm when Hannah arrives home. However it does also mean that we are a lot better at getting out of the house in the morning to go and do stuff !
We have been on some weekend trips from Christchurch so far, to Arthur's Pass, Oamaru, Kaikoura and Akaroa. It is very beautiful virtually everywhere, and this isn't really even the most spectacular scenery in New Zealand. It is also very empty. As soon as you leave Christchurch in any direction there are miles of road going through countryside with the occasional small town. In fact on the way to Kaikoura there were miles of road without even the occasional small town !
