The things which I have seen I now can see no more

Very true statement painted on a wall in earthquake hit Christchurch - the little building is an office, and around it you can see the footprint of the foundation of the building that once was here.

An effort has been made to make the area attractive with wheelbarrow plantings, and there is a little cafe here too in a shipping container.

It's funny how hard it is to get around as the lifetime familiar buildings disappear.
