After the earthquake ..

Visited Christchurch about one year after the terrible earthquake. There are still many buildings in desperate shape and much of the centre of town is closed from the public. Everywhere workers are busy with repairing or demolishing buildings.

But .. life goes on and people try to make the best out of it, I guess. Some shops, a bank and coffee place have opened again in the centre - as temporary versions made out of containers!
