A week in New Zealand's South Island

We travelled around the South Island for a week. The first weekend was spent in Christchurch with some friends who we met playing touch rugby in London (Rick and Sue), they showed us around and took us to a rugby game Canterbury vs. Counties in Christchurch's international stadium. Then on Monday morning (with a car lent from the Harlow family) we headed down through the middle of the south Island to Lake Tekapo (take-a-poo hehehe) for a hike up a hill with great views of the lake and mountains.

We continued down for my birthday night in Wanaka (nice small Ski town though low season this time of year).
