After an enjoyable flight sat in the window seat with no window and no leg room I landed in Christchurch. (never willingly sit in jetstar seat 30 A, especially when flying over some of the most stunning scenery in the world)
Walking out of an airport on my own, the other side of the world is possibly one of the most nauseating moments of my life!!!
Got to my hostel which is a renovated jail. They screwed up my booking... Great. Luckily managed to get a bed though. Debated what to do so I walked to a huge shopping centre, took me forever to get there and then everything closed so I sat in mcdonalds and felt sorry for myself. At least you don't need a bank loan to buy food here, unlike Oz.
The next day I walked into the city centre, it's like a ghost town. Obviously many of the buildings have been pulled down after the earthquakes and there's not much to look at. I can't really see that there was much around before the quakes but I've been assured there was.
