Hanmer Spring--Thermal Pool

Having ntg to do on the 3rd day in Christchurch City, we, 4 of us, decided to join the package which brought us to North of Christchurch, Hanmer Spring...wat to do there..relax ur body n mind then dip into the hot spring...wow...a must DO during WINTER!!!

We set off around 8.30am..it took us around 2 hrs to reach Hanmer Spring.. we were nt going straight to the hot pool...but to explore Conical Hill(Alpine trees)...where u can c the whole Hanmer Spring area when u reached the peak...

BIG earthworm..

Having to walk a lot of zigzag turn..wow..FANTASTIC VIEW!!..Probably u would think that was quite foggy, then can't c any stuff..but u felt u were like in HEAVEN, which clouds or mayb fog surrounding u...

Heaven..lol

In the Heaven..LOL

After a tiring walk...Lunch time!!!..Our package include BBQ lunch..so when we got down from the hill..the lunch was ready..Never did we expect that the lunch was set up near a small pond..v hot dog, beef steak, salad, white wine n eggs served on the picnic table..Though it was a simple lunch, we enjoyed a lot besides having to withstand the coldness...haha..

Small pond v ducklings

Next up...Thermal pool...the pools have a different temperature, ranging from 32-42 degree celsius...the hottest one is Sulfur pool...which hav a strong smell of sulfur..like rotten eggs!!!..but still dipping in hot water during winter, the satisfaction juz undescribable...
