Christchurch

The wedding is over, much regretably. The year of planning, rushing around is finally over. It is one of the most memorable day in my life, up there with flying for the first time alone abroad, starting Uni in a foreign country, meeting Gary and hitting it off at a friend's wedding.

We're now spending some time off by ourselves in New Zealand. We landed here today at 3pm, and spent the day roaming round the city. One of the first places we visited was the famous Christ Church Cathedral. It boasted of high ceilings, fabulous acoustics, a famous choir and just beautiful works of art. It is indeed a beautiful place. We sat in on the evening service and listened to the choir sing the psalms. They had voices of angels! The sun streamed into the cathedral through the stained glass windows showing Jesus and his disciples, and the various saints. I felt quite spiritual after that.
