Christchurch is dull. Not enough people and not enough going on, although it does have a beautiful botanical garden and the art gallery isn't bad either.
However, there were 2 highlights for me. The first being the terrier that lived at our backpackers in Sumner. He had Lassie like qualities in that he liked to run away and have adventures in the big city. He is quite famous for this and given that Sumner is a 20 minute bus journey from Christchurch I think he's a plucky little fellow. Apparently whenever he is spotted by the backpacker guests his owners receive a call and the little adventurer is dragged kicking and barking back to normality. This amused me lots.
The second highlight (a bit of a weird one) was the bus exchange in the centre of town. It reminded me of so many American movies where transient and sinister goings on happen night and day........although probably not in Christchurch!
