Hey all,

Arrived late in Christchurch and went to STARBUCKS!!!! (So sad). Booked into Around the World Backpackers - was okay - not great.

We only really came this way so that we could go from Christchurch to Greymouth on the Trans Alpine train journey (deemed to be in the top three train journeys in the world).

On the way in we passed through a town called Belfast!! Cool.

Went out (of course) and ended up in another Irish Bar (of course). Bumped into the Otago team fresh from their victory over Christchurch in the semi-final of some cup or something the night before. One of them thought he was a hard man so Jay slapped him in front of his mates - that made him cry like a wee boy...

Sorry guys that's basically it but here are a couple of pics of the town square anyway.
