Back in Godzone (New Zealand) I spent the first few days in Christchurch with my cousin.
The big earthquake last September was followed by many, many aftershocks that are still occurring. There was a particularly nasty one on Dec 26 that caused fresh damage.

The building below once had a turret....
.....now it's on the footpath waiting patiently.



My cousin had got married in this church a few years back.

This damage is probably from the December 26 aftershock.

    How does it feel like being back home after such a long time?
    I will catch up with you soon with a proper email message, in a couple of hours I am off skiing on the Dolomites for the weekend with the guys from Wanaka.
