Monday, February 21, 2011

I spent Monday packing and getting the house ready.  On Monday afternoon, Ray Kelly called me and asked me if I had heard about the earthquakes in New Zealand.  At first I thought he was joking with me, but I soon found that he was serious.  I immediately called Reg; he had been out shopping and had not heard or felt anything about earthquakes.  He thought I was pranking him!  As the day went on, I learned that the earthquakes were centered on the south island and had caused considerable damage and death in the city of Christchurch.  Christchurch had suffered a similar earthquake last September, but this one caused much more damage and lives.  I checked with the airlines and all flights to the north island were on.
