One final trip - Day 5 (back to Christchurch & farewell to Sister Chan)

December 31, 2014

It's New Year's Eve! To celebrate, we are taking the ferry to get back to Christchurch in time for Sister Dindi Chan to be set a part as a Sister Missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

The Chan's have become really great friends to us and we were honored to be invited to this special occasion for Dindi. But first we had to get there. Luck was definitely on our side, because even though it was raining, we got to be first in line on the ferry! Well, really it was because we had Ike - but I'll take it.

Seriously, we were the very first car to drive off the ferry. Watch this...

And we're all ready to go.

 And the gate's going, going...
 Gone! Boom!

After a much less sunny drive back to Christchurch than we had enjoyed in the other direction, we made it back just in time for a quick shower and then drove over to the church. Saying goodbye to Sister Chan was sad, but we know she is going to be a great missionary!

What a cute girl!



Lastly, we got home to another beautiful sunset. Time for some rest before our road trip down south begins in the morning! Enjoy the different views from our house.
