The main entrance to the International Antarctic
Centre. The complex contains the CDC (Clothing Distribution Center) where cold
weather gear is issued, and flights are staged. The track vehicles in front of
the Centre are tourist rides.
The sundial in the center of the rose garden of the
Christchurch Botanical Gardens is interesting. Notice how the numbers go
counter-clockwise.
