I found a fine whisky store. Bought my souvenirs. I mentioned my trip to Scotland and my visit to the Douglas Laing offices. The shop manager was well aware of the company and the people that I met in Scotland. Small world, the scotch community.
Went back to the Canterbury Museum to don Oculus VR headsets for a three minute demo presented by Air New Zealand. They “remove” the airplane to give you a simulated view of just hanging in air. Other virtual views follow. Very cool. Also visited the Antartica exhibit again. I walked into the Art Centre, but didn’t go through it. Abstract art makes my head hurt.
Had dinner at the Astro Lounge, which is dedicated to all things scifi. It’s behind “Cook N with GAS” restaurant. They really know how to name things here.
I walked around the grounds of a big outdoor event featuring the city’s symphonic orchestra, whose last number was to be from Fantasia with synchronized fireworks. Food everywhere. Very green; cardboard boxes, wooden forks, etc. I left before the concert. I’ve got an early start tomorrow. Christchurch is simply fantastic, but I’m hankering to get into the countryside.

This cold room only brought back childhood memories of waiting for a school bus in the winter. Sometimes the bus wouldn’t arrive!

Penguins With Disabilities. One simply wouldn’t eat in the wild. Considered a freeloader.

This one might give me nightmares.

What do you play for an angry bull? Darth Vader’s theme would probably work.

I’m often not sure of the point of abstract art.

I really like the last sentence.

I mentally compare this vehicle with early, difficult versions of software. Peachtext rings a bell.

Crowds are crowds worldwide. Favorite t-shirt: “Science is not a liberal conspiracy.”

Synchronized swimming.
