Day 1 We've arrived! Got in to Christchurch this morning at 8:30. Twenty seven hours after leaving North Bend. Nancy picked us up and delivered us to their in-town house, just around the corner from the Palms mall! We like staying in town. We showered, shopped, ate some lunch, rested and shopped again. What a great day. I think we'll get some Indian food for dinner tonight. We've kind of got this day alone just to rest up. Tomorrow, Ron will be studying some for the Youth Service, but I'm going to try to get him to go on an outing, maybe to the gardens. Talk to you tomorrow.Shopping at Westfield Mall in Riccarton.
