Robbie and Nicola watch Laura and a helpful neighbour remove the broken chimney.
The chimney busted right through the wooden beam holding up the roof. I'm told it may an alarming noise.
Yes, it was a joke. The tours, that is, not the yard filled with earthquake-caused sand volcanos. They were very real. You can see one covering the driveway in this photo.
The signs read as follows.
"Tours run 1/2 hourly.
$5.25 admission.
Eftpos unavailable."
"If you think this is bad... you should see the back!"
Cracks in the roads and foot paths were surprisingly hard to find given the strength of the earthquake.

The unforgettable beauty of lavender
Occurs in both the earth
As well as part of the many changing
Shades of the daily heavens on high.
Is quickly there, and then is gone.
Light violet, lavender,
How unique is its special glow,
Colored in nature in light lilac,
Amethyst, and airy, purple indigo.
From a poem by Gil Saenz
