The Honkers-Kiwi-Aussie Tour: Day 17 Christchurch, NZ


Drove campervan back to Christchurch via Little River and Lyttelton. Checked into our hotel before returning campervan.

After freshening up we set out to explore Cathedral Square and have dinner at The Holy Grail:

"Welcome to the Holy Grail Sports Bar's website. New Zealand’s biggest sports bar, the Holy Grail provides an entertainment experience second to none. Opened in 2000 in the converted art-deco Avon Picture Theatre building, the Holy Grail has proven to be a Mecca for sports fans, punters, and partygoers. The multi-level 17,000 square foot complex, all focussed on a giant 10-metre projector screen, caters for 1000 patrons throughout its four bars, award-winning restaurant, 70-seater indoor grandstand, and private function areas. "

The service was fast & friendly - so good in fact that I asked to speak to the manager to tell him how impressed we were.

Spent a fun & interesting evening with Rod White and family - a distant relative on hubby's mother's side.
