<\/div>\nCome on over<\/p>\n
That’s the\u00a0 plea of the top tourism officials in Christchurch.\u00a0 Stand by for a solid promotional campaign, which appears to be mainly centred around Sydney, and set to launch mid October.<\/p>\n
In brief, the ‘gathering of the clan’ so to speak, is to let Aussies know that the beautiful city of Christchurch is back in business.\u00a0 The bulk of tourism operators, along with hotels and attractions , have the shingles out and are ready and waiting to serve those of us from across the ditch who have a dollar or two to spend this Springtime. To get the latest information I suggest you contact your local travel agent. <\/p>\n
