Christchurch day 1

So today has been a long long day! but its been good, woke up at 5, got to the melbourne airport by 6. then we hung around in the Quantas club, finally we took off, and the flght was about 3 hours. but when we got here since the time difference we lost 2 hours. After Customs and Immigration it was about 3ish. We went to the International Antartica Center place which was really cool, and we saw all these penguines and went on this little tour thing in these weird cars that they use in Antartica. After that we came to the hotel, and we checked in then walked around the city to find dinner. We ate at this Thai restruant and it was really good! Then walked around a bit more and found not one starbucks, but 2! i was very excited. Christchurch is such a pretty city. Its really nice walking and its just really nice. We'll do some more exploring tomorrow, and such, just today were all a bit tired from flying and such, so we didnt do all that much. But it's been a pretty good day!
