Christchurch, New Zealand – October 2002

Wow, hasn’t time flown by?! It seems that Christmas will be here before we know it. It’s lovely to see the lambs though. Now the days are warmer there’s more to see and do without having to dress up in warm clothes to match our freezing winters. Mind you, I’m really looking forward to the hot summer days here in New Zealand. Take care and have a great month!
