We drove over to Lyttelton on Sunday from Richmond Hill Bed and Breakfast .   This view is only a ten minute drive from us, driving up Evans Pass Road, and wow what a view when you get to the top!   You look down into the ancient volcanic caldera.  On the left of both pictures is out to the open sea, and to the right this wonderful huge natural protected harbour, which is why Lyttelton is the Port for Christchurch. The second photo is looking at tiny little Diamond Harbour, and a ferry potters across all day long backwards and forwards from Lyttelton.  Sometimes you can see dolphins as you motor across,playing in the water.

It was such a glorious warm, sunny Spring day, and we spent the whole day looking at the views en route, and going for a picnic, and then to She, which is a great little restaurant in Governors Bay, which specialises in chocolate.  We are both chocoholics! 

On to the next job....
