Description: The All Blacks are visiting Christchurch today - 17 September 2011. "Rugby World Cup 2011 (RWC 2011) Tournament partners have reluctantly announced that Christchurch will be unable to host the seven matches currently scheduled to be played at the AMI/Lancater Park Stadium in Christchurch. This follows a detailed assessing of damage to the Stadium, grounds and infrastructure caused by the 6.3 magnitude earthquake that struck the city on 22 February 2011.

This image - taken on 29 July 2011 - also shows the remains of the very heavy snow fall we had on Monday 25 July 2011.
