Goodbye Christchurch

Bridget:

On Wednesday, December 23, Craig and I said goodbye to Christchurch.   We have been living and working in this city for almost three months, and it has been such an amazing experience.  We have learned a lot about ourselves and this country, we have met and worked with some really cool people, and we have definitely had our share of fun times.  However, due to some changes in our employment situations, we have decided to move on.  We are headed up to the northern end of the South Island….but first we will be traveling around the South Island to see all the beautiful places this country has to offer.  So, to say farewell, we will leave you with a few festive pictures of Christchurch during this Christmas season.
