We finally bought a car! Bye Bye Christchurch

So...
We spent the last couple of days checking cars, cooking meals and spending money...
Eventually, we found one! a 92 Toyota Camry, automatic (although Sarit really wanted a manual one. Actually a 206 Peugeot would have been just perfect...).
As you can see in the picture - it is a station wagon (an old one), and we hope to use it as a hostel from time to time - a great honeymoon :)














While searching for a car we tried to cheer our spirit in different ways.
First and most important - Food.
The cashiers in the supermarket already recognize us. we visit there every day, buying fresh veg's and meat.
Then we return to our hostel (Foley Towers - a great BBH hostel), and Roi cooks the meat. I'm responsible of the extras - rice/pasta...




















The hostel dining room -














And like home - at the end Roi is doing the dishes :)














Second, we've noticed it's very quiet in New Zealand, so we decided to add a bit of noise to it by playing a guitar, but we realized we didn't had one. And so we went buying a guitar in one of the music shop we bump into while touring the city.
Since that moment, every spare minute in the room looks like this -















Just before leaving Christchurch, here is a few pictures:
Hagley park -















Cathedral square -




















The city center -















Christchurch has street ducks instead of street cats -















The local tourist train (looks like the Luna Park's train...) -















Next stop is Akaroa - 90 minutes ride from here.
this is it for now.
next time we'll put some picture of Sarit as well.

  1. תתחדשו על הבונבוניירה.טוב שבחרתם ברכב אוטומטי, במקום לחפש כל הטיול את ידית ההילוכים במקום שלעולם לא ימצא בניו זילנד-בצד ימין.
    שתהיה דרך צלחה.נשיקות.
