We went browsing around the Arts Centre precinct in the city this morning. Visited the art gallery and took a guided tour with a group of strangers. It turns out that they weren't just ordinary lay people with no knowledge of art; they were painters, and they sure know their stuff! They asked questions, they looked and peered into each piece of art as though there are hidden symbols written in invisible ink on the canvas, they knew about art history, they tracked the painters' histories! Oh wow.....
A typical scene of Christchurch with the tram running through it

We also went to the Botanical Gardens. It's located in the fringe of the city, with the River of Avon running through it.
It's spring!
