Hi Gary, Hi Matt,
I somehow missed Matt's post. Thanks for that info. Some of those sites I very much want to see.
Pacific Blue Airline cancelled the AM flight on 3 Sep. So we leave 2 Sep, arrive in Christchurch 1145PM.

Obviously not enough passengers.
I am contemplating spending a day around Christchurch then driving South to Timaru. How does that fit for you Gary? I'll PM you my phone No.
Hi Humayun, I'll do same for you. Happy Birthday to you coming up on Wednesday.
Cheers Marty
