For once I had really good night’s sleep and what happens? A 7.1 quake down in Christchurch. Holy s**t!
You can say whatever you want to about the Waikato, but it’s nice not being too close to volcanoes (i.e., Auckland), tsunamis (anything located on the coast) or fault lines (e.g., Wellington). That’s the kind of boringness that I enjoy. 🙂
