Christchurch
 
Friday was a rainy gray day.  We drove up to Christchurch not expecting to find much along the way.  A picture of a church or two, then what looked like a smokey truck ahead of us on the road was a 100 year old steam tractor chugging up the highway.  I have only seen these things as static relics in the Alameda County Fair.  Here they were live and running (10-12 MPH) up the highway.  We got several good photos of them when they stopped for water.  After checking into our hotel, we went to downtown Christchurch to Cathedral Square for dinner.
