Ahhh but all is not as rosey as it seems.
See that little grey boat on the right hand wharf in the top photos... thats like the NZ Navy

Its Wellington NZ, looking North. Notice how the hills on the left form a nice straight line, a nice straight FAULT line. I'm 28 floors up (thats high in NZ building terms

) in a building that was discovered to be built crooked half way up, so the second half leans in the opposite direction (theres a 1 metre kink in the middle of our building sorta).
I'm so screwed when the next 'big one' hits.
p.s. nuke its snow, notice how we can SEE the mountains in the distance (not some smog belt).
