Im now wondering if we should try to postpone ? I also cant help thinking that we could have been trapped in all that horrific devistation so easily, give or take a week. I keep bursting into tears as I see the news and the raw pain and anguish -so sad and perhaps not a good time to be visiting with so much going on. <br />MelindaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5967504481915294079.post-3938216639477890982011-02-23T18:57:58.731+13:002011-02-23T18:57:58.731+13:00I was listening to ABC 24 yesterday and someone as...I was listening to ABC 24 yesterday and someone asked about the difference between NZ emergency workers and Australian; and how it seemed that Australian efforts were more measured. The reply was that was because we have more warning with ours...bushfires, floods, cyclones can be mapped to a degree. Earthquakes come out of nowhere don't they, and I can't begin to imagine how terrifying that must be. It's heartbreaking, and nature needs to give it a rest for a minute.Kerryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01762326830724357881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5967504481915294079.post-88326560111191597472011-02-23T16:41:07.338+13:002011-02-23T16:41:07.338+13:00It's just horrifying Ann.

Earthquakes are scary business. And earthquakes serve as a reminder for us that we are (Vancouver is) overdue for a big one. We checked our emergency supplies again last night and we're keeping our fingers crossed the big one doesn't hit anytime soon.Shannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16826967903350376548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5967504481915294079.post-86292424361242211372011-02-23T13:01:56.108+13:002011-02-23T13:01:56.108+13:00Your remark about the children whose parents don&#...Your remark about the children whose parents don't come to pick them up from school really brings it home to me.

Cannot believe it. Christchurch is so beautiful. I just read about a woman who ran out of a shop when the quake hit with her baby in her arms and was hit by debris and died (but the baby lived). So so awful. xoxoJanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02475155333546477042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5967504481915294079.post-54161375727541752762011-02-23T11:47:17.307+13:002011-02-23T11:47:17.307+13:00They are my questions too Ann, you've put it s...They are my questions too Ann, you've put it so well.
