Christchurch Tram City Tour
From the moment I saw the Tram at Christchurch city center, I knew I was going to hop on it for a ride someday soon that day came on the 2nd of January 2024, it was still a holiday from work, so my colleague and I made the most of it.
We hopped in at Hereford Street, I can't recall the exact number of stops but a full circle tour is 50 minutes, and with one ticket you can do as many circles as you want provided you didn't get off after boarding (I hope I made sense😉)
I only did a circle tour with my colleague and it was enjoyable, I discovered some streets that I told myself I would walk along someday, and I also discovered some beautiful graffiti in the process.
The green tram #24 is the new tram to join the trams, it joined the other trams just after Christmas, what a cute baby!
It was a beautiful day packed with tourists and I sure had a good time.
We owe it to ourselves to make Hive great

It is like watch a movie
All the photos describe a city that we used to watch from behind our computer screen. It is something to live the reality.
Great tour and happy photo hunting

Yes bro the places are so beautiful, they truly look like in the movies, it is a pity I don't have much time to edit videos, I was going to share videos as well.

If you have space on the cloud you can store amazing recording you got from your travels in the regions.
You will edit them later in the future
Free space on the cloud will be a great archive for later review after many years.
Peace
That is true, I will consider that.

Trams are such a convenience in city life moving around, our trams when we still had them were the traditional British colours of red/white, trains had the same colours we referred to as "tomato sauce and cream".
Before being painted they were plain wood with numbers on, later trains took on the light blue when Republic formed.
Always exciting to see finishing touches inside the cabins, built to last made to perfection, please the eye.

It must have been nice having Trams in SA, I am aware of the train rides which I didn't get a chance to take, (we chatted about it some time ago)
Joburg has the bus ride that goes through town, that would have been a nice ride to hop on but the hustle and bustle life of Joburg never granted me the opportunity.
Inside the cabin is very admirable with the beautiful wood that has lasted over the years.
Many thanks for the tip.

Trams were when I was very young, distant memory of them around age 5 or 6. We then had trolley buses, which eventually changed to buses as we know them today.
Trains from steam to electric and diesel was the only mode of transport we had when young, my father got his first car in my teenage years.
Carriages were wood and leather, very special smell one will remember forever, no wonder we "oldies" long for the years gone, nice to see in some parts of the world these are still being run and maintained with love and reflection of bygone era.
It sounds like the good old days to me, days I will long to experience again. I think Christchurch is smart about retaining the trams and making money through tourism.
Much has changed, not always for the better. Preserving old will always hold a fascination, which Africa does not want to see.
Nice tour with a shining day
It was a beautiful warm day for a nice tour.

Cool ride... I hope you took note of the streets where there was StreetArt to share all this with us 😀
Have a great Friday
Lol yes, I will just follow the tram route and do a full circle 😃
Thanks and a wonderful Friday to you.
