Our time in Christchurch was all about Antarctica. We spent a couple of hours in the visitor wing of the International Antarctic Centre. Most scientists travelling to Antarctica pass through the Centre, which is adjacent to the airport. Lots of good info on the international stations, current research, and issues in the deep south.

Then we spent a couple of hours in the Antarctic Hall of the Canterbury Museum, where they have exhibits on Antarctic history. Some of the cooler stuff was gear and clothing from famous expeditions - Scott, Amundsen, Shackleton.
