Visit to Lyttelton Harbor

Here's a look at Lyttelton Harbor, known as the Port of Christchurch. I think you'll agree it's quite pretty! But why does it matter? One word: EXPORTS!

We've learned from our lectures that New Zealand is quite reliant on the export market. One of the most interesting facts, I thought, is that 94% of the milk produced in this country is exported for dairy products around the world. With 1,300 ships entering this harbor each year, it is definitely important to trade in New Zealand.

But since I brought up the dairy topic, I thought you might like knowing we're set to visit a dairy farm. Promise to have more info about New Zealand dairies when we get back!

G'day mate!
