NEW ZEALAND, perfect ANCIENT EGYPTIAN MUMMY in CHRISTCHURCH ???? (Canterbury Museum)
SUBSCRIBE: - Here's an Egyptian mummy (from 185BC) displayed at the Canterbury Museum and which is in perfect condition and shape. Let's review its history and take a close look at this remarkable mummy from ancient Egypt. Her name is Tash Pan Khonsu. ic Stefanu, vstefanu@yahoo.com. New Zealand is an island nation in the southwestern Pacific Ocean. The country geographically comprises two main landmasses – that of the North Island, or Te Ika-a-Māui, and the South Island, or Te Waipounamu – and numerous smaller islands. New Zealand is situated some 1,500 kilometres (900 mi) east of Australia across the Tasman Sea and roughly 1,000 kilometres (600 mi) south of the Pacific island areas of New Caledonia, Fiji, and Tonga.

Exploring New Zealand #6: Christchurch Cathedral Square and Canterbury Museum
When I was preparing this trip to New Zealand, some people told me Christchurch wasn't that good. How wrong they were. Christchurch is a beautifully planned city plenty of interesting things to keep you busy for a couple of days. We took many photos at the Cathedral Square, climbed the Christchurch Cathedral tower, visited the fascinating Canterbury Museum and spent an afternoon at the Orana Wildlife Park.
______
Cathedral Square, locally known simply as the 'Square', is the geographical centre and heart of Christchurch, New Zealand, where the city's Anglican cathedral, ChristChurch is located. The square was originally intended to be called Ridley Square, after the Protestant martyr Nicholas Ridley, but in Edward Jollie's 1850 plan of central Christchurch it is clearly marked Cathedral Square. Ridley's co-martyrs and colleague bishops, Cranmer and Latimer have Squares named after them, not far distant from Cathedral Square.
- Update 5 September 2010: Earthquake in Christchurch, New Zealand
Christchurch's landmark heritage buildings have made it through yesterday's damaging 7.1 magnitude earthquake, and hefty aftershocks, relatively unscathed. Five hundred buildings have been affected across Christchurch, including 90 in the central city where there are many heritage and character buildings. Christchurch landmarks to have fared well the earthquake include the Provincial Chambers, the Christchurch Cathedral, the Arts Centre, Christ's College and the Public Trust building and other buildings on Oxford Terrace. One building extensively damaged is the Repertory Theatre in Kilmore St, just months ahead of a major restoration project, a city council spokeswoman said. Staff from Christchurch City Council and the Historic Places Trust have begun inspecting central city buildings alongside the council's building evaluation team, and will also assess buildings elsewhere in Christchurch and Banks Peninsula. A very small number of buildings have suffered extensive damage due to the earthquake, and further assessment will determine whether they can be restored. Many others have suffered minor to moderate damage, and will be fixed in coming weeks. Buildings already strengthened by property owners had generally fared well. We encourage building owners to seek appropriate advice from structural engineers and architects and take steps in the interim to reduce damage and cost by keeping them weather-tight, Urban Design and Heritage team leader Ceciel DelaRue said.

NEW ZEALAND: The very STRANGE T-SHIRT EXHIBIT in CHRISTCHURCH (CANTERBURY MUSEUM) ????
SUBSCRIBE: - Let's go to the world famous Canterbury Museum in Christchurch, New Zealand and let's visit the T-Shirts Unfolding exhibit. The exhibition showcased almost 1,000 T-shirts from around the world from the collection of Australian T-shirt collector and graphic artist, Eddie Zammitt. T-shirts Unfolding considered the people, design and popular culture of the T-shirt as the most commonly worn article of clothing in the world. Key to the exhibition was encouraging discussion around the role of T-shirts in popular culture and challenging perceptions of the humble T-shirt.
New Zealand is a country in the southwestern Pacific Ocean consisting of 2 main islands, both marked by volcanoes and glaciation. Capital Wellington, on the North Island, is home to Te Papa Tongarewa, the expansive national museum. Wellington’s dramatic Mt. Victoria, along with the South Island’s Fiordland and Southern Lakes, stood in for mythical Middle Earth in Peter Jackson’s Lord of the Rings films.
