Day 120 March 9th 2007, Frozen Pizza - Christchurch to Hanmer Springs

With all driving and camping we were starting to get a little fatigued so we didn't really feel like exploring Christchurch all that much. A lot of people had said it looks a lot like England, this didn't really inspire us as of course we live in England.

So after a day of catching up on emails and drinking coffee we headed off to Hanmer Springs, again underestimating how far away everything is in New Zealand, by the time we arrived it was pitch black and with a damp tent from last nights rain in the boot we took the easy option and checked into a motel. After finding out we wouldn't be able to get anything to eat as all of the restaurants would be closed (it was only 9PM) the motel owners gave us a frozen pizza from their own supplies.
