I wander down to Cathedral Square and visit Christchurch Cathedral that, according to my guide, has an impressive rose window. After struggling to find it I notice it's lying behind heavy scaffolding.
I climb the 130-odd steps to the bell tower for views of Christchurch but I'm disappointed. The views aren't that impressive or is it Christchurch that isn't? Walking into the chapel I notice a prayer board where people have posted hand-written prayers, mostly wishing for loved one to recover from illness. I'm in tears immediately and need to leave the church.
