How to wake up early while on holiday

Top Tip- live in an earthquake zone! We had a nice start to the day...a 5.1 just after 6am followed by 3.4 and a 4 around 8am. I have given up trying to sleep in. Last time there was this kind of pattern (or "swarm" as the propellor heads call it) of shaking there was an even bigger one every two hours. It's currently 9.10am so let's see what happens next eh? You're welcome to come along for the ride at Geonet. Apparently we have now had 4, 432 shakes since 4 September 'quake.


Today I'm taking the kids to see an exhibit at the Art Gallery (presumably it's still standing) from a chap called Ron Meuck which we have been looking froward to for some time now. Our youngest is especially keen to see the giant baby (personally I think it will make my eyes water...)

So, for something that might make the rest of you cry, I found this clip on YouTube. Enjoy!
