Well, on Sun we went to the Grotto - which is where a church turns into this little magical Christmas place that you walk through and they have different scenes, really enjoyed that. Then yesterday we first had breakfast at the most awesome Drexels (breakfast all day), then after that we went to central town, which I haven't been to since the Feb quake :(, They've created temporary container shopping malls, which I think looks really awesome. And right there is the shop Ballantynes, which has a window display every Christmas, and this year was themed Fairy tales, which we loved - every thing moved etc... then after that we went to the Botanical gardens, which turned out lovely.
