The children were remarkably brave and remained calm through out the initial tremor and the subsequent after shocks. Communications, water and power supplies have been disrupted. In some parts of the city sewers have contaminated the water supply and there is a fear of an outbreak of Typhoid or Cholera. At least everyone in our family is not injured.

Good to hear.  One of the local TV stations in Sacramento, California 
just happened to have 2 of their reporters on vacation in Christchurch. 
So they did a report via Skype.
