The children met lots of different penguins...stuffed and cuddly ones! (although, apparently they are due to get some live ones shortly!)
J & A in the 'kids only' penguin room!
The children particularly enjoyed playing in the 'Antartic Storm' room...(you can't see the 12 kids that Pete beat off to get on to the Skidoo.) Every 30 minutes the storm went off....to show you how influential the wind is in causing temperatures to plummet to -25 degrees! Jessica hid in the igloo but the rest of us braved the storm!
Chris got a wet bottom on the ice slide!
So, after a jolly morning in one centre, we arrived in the centre of Christchurch for a tour of the sights. The Cathedral was an obvious must see.....(but we confess....we didn't go up it!)
Tram photo......but ....we didn't go on it!
Cool Art Gallery...but we didn't go in it!!

The Antarctic Centre was great wasn't it! Cold room was bloody cold though. Could do with that here today... 33°C in the shade... Did you go on the special ice train thingy outside which took you round the car park and down big hollows and up steep hills and through deep water?
And...Finally I beat you! I went up the cathedral, on the tram and into the Art Gallery! Glad you saw the Flowery Minnellium Chip Cone too!
