Christchurch

We did another LOTR tour in Wellington. And it happened to turn into a private tour. No one else signed up for it, how lucky!! Our guide was an orc in the scene where Aragorn tells Frodo to make a run for it at the end of The Fellowship. How rad! He could have been an elf but before they called back he cut off his long hair. Bummer. We went everywhere! Many of the places were so random you would have driven right past it not evening knowing. 

In Christchurch now and its a bit of a sad place. They are demolishing the entire city centre, making it look like a bomb has hit the place instead of an earthquake. I am positive it would have been a great lovely place if the natural disaster had spared them. I won't hid it though that I am glad we leave tomorrow morning and continue onwards.

Watched The Fellowship last night so I could see all the places we have gone to and notice all the secrets we have been told. Will never see it the same way again! So I leave you with..

Wise Words from Gandalf (who else):

"Many that live deserve death. Some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them, Frodo? Do not be too eager to deal out death in judgment. Even the very wise cannot see all ends."
"A wizard is never late, Frodo Baggins. Nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to."

"Keep it secret. Keep it safe."



 "All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us."
 
"If in doubt always follow your nose"
