29 March
A day of
travel to Christchurch.
"It is a busy day. A memorial service. Cat Stephens; Scott Morrison; Prince William will be there.”
Some people have had their parents, children, relatives murdered and are now part of a media circus. I just want to leave them alone.
In our travels we see tourist attractions which exist because of a disaster years ago.
Time seems to turn some personal disasters into a great story and a tourist stop with a cafe and curios.
I hope we don’t see any famous people or TV cameras in Christchurch. The TV journalists and people around the world want to know how Christchurch is recovering. They can do their job and I’ll do a small walk around Christchurch.
The people on our tour are all like us. Retired Australian couples. Rich or comfortable. You can tell they are rich because they never talk about the cost of things. They just pay.
They all
have grandchildren; a footy team; a history of successful and demanding work
and future travel plans. You can decide
how typical we are.
