As far as I know my family near CHCH are OK...

But the lost of life and injuries are sad...

This is a beautiful city...

The oldest city and the 1st city incorporated in NZ

My father was born there...

My g grandmother and her father (my gg grandfather) died there and are buried in old cemetaries...

We spent a lot of time in CHCH when I was little...

The last time I was there was 2 years ago...

Canterbury Cathedral is a beautiful building..

Its a shame it has been so damaged...

I took communion there 2 years ago...

The Anglican service was much the same as when I was young
