Earthquake at the world's best film set

Think the lord of the rings trilogy


The last samurai


Whale Rider


Vertical limit


The Piano


And the upcoming The hobbit



All these films have been filmed in the stunning setting of New Zealand, a backdrop to be envied by most countries. And what makes it stunning? The mountains and valleys and plains and glaciers and hidden forests and beaches; all of which are formed due to New Zealands location on the joint of tectonic plates. The downside though is that it makes NZ an earthquake zone and today the dreaded has happened with awful consequences for beautiful Christchurch.

So today we play tribute to new Zealand; the scenery and the people, and pray that recovery physically and emotionally is swift.
