New Zealand Travel Adventure Day 4 - Exploration

We spent most of our Sunday, December 18 morning walking around Richmond, getting the lay of the land. We took the boys to one of the local playgrounds, then headed to the mall to see Santa. Amazingly, Noah sat in the chair with him despite declaring, at the first site of him, "I not like Santa Claus. Where's Daddy?"
After seeing Santa, Megan went to go get a pedicure while the boys and I explored downtown Richmond. The first sign that we saw begged to be photographed for obvious reasons.

Because the boys were so good at the mall and walking around, I decided to treat them. Here is Cameron with his short bread lady.
Here's Noah with his camel-shaped short bread cookie with sprinkles.
And here's what I picked out for Megan and myself to share.
Last night, Pam and I picked up the rental van for our drive down to Christchurch this week. We'll be down there for the next few days via Hanmer Springs on the way there and via Kaikoura on the return trip. I can't wait to see what kind of adventure awaits.
