I just wanted to say that our thoughts and prayers are with everyone in Christchurch at this dreadful time. I hope they get all the help needed from other countries as soon as possible.
We have cousins in New Zealand. My knowledge of the geography of that country is very sparse, so I’m hoping that our family are all ok. I feel helpless over here in the UK seeing people experiencing this awful event. Just wish I could do more than offer thoughts and prayers!
So That's Where I Get It From 
Very heart felt sympathy sent to the populous of New Zealand. Like you I have family & friends in NZ and hope they are ok.

Hallo Julie, Thanks for visiting my blog. I haven’t heard any more news about the earthquake since this morning, so don’t know how they are getting on with finding survivors. It amazes me how places that get hit by earthquakes manage to sort through all the rubble and ruin to find people. And all the while as nearby buildings are probably unsafe. Let’s hope they all get the help they need there. And hope that lots of prayers are answered!
Kind regards,
Christine
