It's really hard to fathom what happened in New Zealand, tragedy so close to home, but as I'm updating this tragedy another took place just 2 days ago in Japan :-(
Below is just a story from 'Bay of Plenty Times' - a Newspaper in NZ..
Christchurch earthquake: Residents return
Christchurch is preparing for the return of up to 60,000 residents who fled the city in the wake of the earthquake.
So far, 163 people are confirmed dead but police believe the final toll will be 180. Police have released the names of 117 victims.
National Civil Defence controller John Hamilton said an estimated 60,000 people were expected to return in the next week or two. Today 110 schools would reopen.
Residents were advised to take a chemical toilet if offered to them, because the sewerage system might not cope with rain.
