    Christchurch was on the front page of the newspaper this morning in an article about how you guys are totally still shaking all the time.

    Yep, 8000+ earthquakes and counting... of course we only feel a fraction of those, and an even smaller number when you think "oh ****", and then only 3 when you think "I'm going to die".

    Still here though. :D

    The long silent arms are creeping up from below... ready to take the sky line apart.

    My Dad's in the news, yet again. I was almost in this shot, but it did catch my old AOTC poster in the background. :p

    Pretty amazing. Two months since our last scary one. Still getting small aftershocks about every 1-2 weeks, I don't think it's ever been as quiet as this (after September of course).
