Christchurch turns 150 years old today. It's been 150 years since it first got a Bishop.
-not that the city is exceedingly relgious, that's just how they marked if it was a city or not back then.
But there was a big festival down in Cathedral Square there was quite a few people and things going on. Free cake to everyone (gooooood carrot cake... *drools*), concerts, a 'Dress Up As Your Favourite Thing About The City' contest (people dressed up as flowers, wizards, the giant marijuana statue was one woman's headdress) and when I walked by; 'How Many People Can You Cram Into A Streetcar'? (176, with a lot of children.)
Kinda cool. I freaked people out again by wearing my sketchbook on me head. -and then on the way back, my sketchbook and five other books on my head. *shrugs*
