The Christchurch earthquake
Yesterday was a devastating day for the people who is living at Christchurch.
I was devastated listening to my mum even talking to my dad about the earthquake at Christchurch.
It was 6.3 magnitude.It is smaller then their last earthquake but it made more damage.
But the worst bit about it was that 75 people
lost their lives and that people
are trapped under collapsed buildings and rubble I felt very sorry for them.
There was many aftershocks.
This one was bigger than the last one even though it was smaller but the reason it was bigger is because that it was closer to the ground.
There was liquefaction in the ground and it was ruining everything.The rumbling and the shaking destroyed the buildings,causing rubble and bricks to crush cars and buses.
