Hi everyone,
With Christmas fast approaching, we'd be keen to hear from those who spend the festive season (or part of it) away each year. Where do you go and why? What makes it such a great place to be at this time of year? What are you most looking forward to about the trip? Any words of advice you may have on things to do or places to eat or drink in the area would also be much appreciated. As usual, please put 'NFP' (not for publication) in your comment if you don't want it included in a travel article. Cheers.

It seems Christchurch takes to waffles as moths do to a flame.

Akaroa’s Waffle Haus has branched out to the Garden City and hit record numbers from the jump, trebling the Akaroa store's best day of sales on its opening day.

The brunch spot has several claims to fame including 30 milkshake flavours, Brussels and Liege waffles with a range of toppings, and popular Mojo coffee and Deep South icecreams.
