Chapter 125 : email from Christchurch 19 March


19 March

We have spent the day walking around Christchurch.
It is a very pleasant city dominated and stained by two recent disasters.
Partially destroyed buildings are common.
Everybody has a tragic story about last Friday.
We went to the Botanical Gardens were many flowers have been placed. There were many messages written. I added a few words and straight away a lady next to me asked to borrow my chalk. She then wrote a few words.

A memorial for the earthquake called 185 empty chairs was very moving.
