					<description><![CDATA[To keep it 100, Christchurch was an afterthought, mostly thanks to the ticket prices arbitrage. That said, we did have a good time there, and it worked as a good landing for the holiday. Where to stay in Christchurch Hotel Give, formerly YMCA (we think) was a very well located place at a reasonable rate. [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Our perfectly planned itinerary&#8217;s spanner came in the form of Jetstar cancelling its flight from Auckland. This was their last flight for the day, and since we we had to reach Queenstown the same day for a tour, we had to book an Air New Zealand at a price high enough for my kidneys to [&#8230;]]]></description>

We arrived a day after the cyclone Vaianu. Thankfully, barring the minor inconvenience of small shower spells, we [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Anna Funder Stasiland had me hooked on Page 4, when Anna Funder nailed (in the GDR context) my fascination &#8211; why I keep reading about (and visiting) Eastern Europe. She calls it horror-romance. &#8220;The romance comes from the dream of a better world the German Communists wanted to build out of the ashes of their [&#8230;]]]></description>

With different seating areas, and a classy decor approach, we really liked the ambience. It isn&#8217;t that they didn&#8217;t have an extensive cocktail menu, but we went with the [&#8230;]]]></description>
