Hanmer Springs among the Southern Alps

---

Just come back from a day trip to this lovely village on the Southern Alps on NZ's South Island called Hanmer Springs. Not much to sightsee apart from the gorges on our way to the villages, but boy do they have a resort or what! Spent several hours in their world-famous Hanmer Springs Pools, where you can simply idle all day long in a selection of sulphur pools and thermal pools. Or you can do what I did as well and go for a nice massage at their health and body suite. It was a real shame I had to leave that place and come back to the hotel!!!

Going sightseeing within Christchurch tomorrow - my last full day at Christchurch and NZ. Hope to see the Antarctic Centre next to the airport and hiope to take some photos of the Little'Fairy Penguins to show you all.

This internet cafe has already charged $2.50 for this short message. Gotta go and upload some more photos.

Ciao for now. ;o)
