Early morning quake

I thought I had felt some tremors yesterday. This morning it was clear. At around 6am I felt the rumbling of an earth quake in Christchurch. I was already awake participating in a conference call to the US. It was kind of distracting to sit in my room on the 8th floor of a hotel and discuss budgets and planning for a scientific project while the walls are shaking. I was wondering at what point would I say to my colleagues "I gotta go now...."? The rumbling passed, I finished the call and all was fine. Now it is time to have some breakfast.

Looking at some websites it is fascinating to see the earth quake activity in NZ. See for example

And yes, I feel all the aftershocks
