Another city walk around, this time with my brother-in-law from Auckland. Also went to the Quake City exhibition in the city organised by the Canterbury Museum. First fine day for a while.
This bus is used as a chocolate restaurant, and is parked next to the Pallet Pavilion on the site of the old Park Royal Hotel.

The "I hope Christchurch will..." blackboard on the corner of Tuam and Colombo Streets. Members of the public are invited to fill in the gaps with what they would like to see in the rebuilt city. Messages can be seen, such as, "Bring back cruising" and "Be filled with chocolate!".
