Saturday Morning, I woke up and turned on the T.V as it was on channel One, There was BREAKING NEWS! It was very shocking and I definitely needed to see what was happening. I thought there was a disaster going to happen to our city, Auckland but actually it had already hit...
There was an Earthquake tha twas 7.4 MAgnitudes last night and it had hit Christchurch. My eyes were glued onto the T.V as Breaking News was always interesting and a Must-Watch. Nearly all the buildings and houses were destroyed and cars flipped upside down or detached. It was devastating. I thought it was horrible and I felt really sorry for the people who got injured. Luckily no one had died in the earthquake and that meant no lives were gone.
Cars were flipped upside down and some were on top of others, Buildings had fallen over and the roads had HUMUNGOUS holes in the roads. Kids could even fit in them. The earthquake is the 2nd biggest earthquake recorded in New Zealand! No one could use any electricity and there wasn't anymore clean water because the earthquake had damaged all the pipes. Luckily they got sent clean water so they wouldn't get diseases from dirty water and they won't dehydrate. Banks were so nice, they had sponsored the earthquake victims and so that they can fix the area sestroyed from the earthquake. Like ANZ they had sponsored $1 million dollars!
I hope Christchurch will be able to recover form the devastating disaster.
