NZ most treasured assests are its Kiwi, but I will hold dear all my pictures of lovely downtown Christchurch. Did you know firefighters came over after 9-11 to help at ground zero and took back with them a piece of the steel structure. We saw it in Christchurch along with a plaque honoring all firemen lost in the line of duty. It was very touching. Saw my 1st chestnut tree ever as most have been lost to disease here in America. There is a reason Christchurch is called the Garden City of the World. Hugs and prayers to all Kiwis.
