Debra points at the beginnings of a sand volcano not long after the big earthquake.
An usual thing to see coming from the ground in Hoon Hay, Christchurch.
Pigeons sit on the remains of one of the tallest buildings in Christchurch that was 95% demolished two or three years ago. The basement (now filled with water) and the columns remain. Demolished due to damage from the Christchurch 2011 earthquake.
Laura, Nicola, and Debra watch a sand volcano build in the Wyn Street gutter.
(I righted the bird bath after the initial earthquake. None of the after-shocks were sufficient to knock it over again.)
The result of the magnitude 7.1 Christchurch earthquake at 4.35am on September 4th 2010. Taken from Dallington Terrace looking towards Avonside Drive. Notice how the riverbank has slumped - at high tide the tree is now surrounded by water.
Water from the river at high tide crosses Evans Avenue and enters a now abandoned "red zone" house via the garage. Next door (to the left) is the garage containing a car that was destroyed by fire last week (see earlier photos).
One of the many sand volcanos erupting from the ground after the Christchurch earthquake.

The Christchurch Methodist Church van takes a hit from the falling gable end of the church.
