Dear Diary 21/2/11 10:00. I am enjoying my holiday here at this place called Christchurch. At least its not like Wellington where it is horrible and rainy. Tomorrow I am going to the Christchurch cathedral and I am bringing my loving family and it is going to be so much fun. Today we are going to go fishing and we are having the fish for dinner. 4:00. This is so fun fishing we caught some salmon and some snappers. We are heading back now and we are going to have the best holiday ever. 6:00. The fish was very very nice and now we are watching some movies. The first movie is under the mountain and it was scary in some parts. 8:00. Wow there was just an earthquake but it was lucky it was a small one. 22/2/11 9:00. I have the best family ever and 2 great sons. We are going to the cathedral now. 11:00. This is so cool inside the cathedral and we are taking a guide it is going to take hours. 12:30. We have taken a tour and it is impressive so now we are going to the gift shop. 12:50. We are about to go to the pools but first we have to exit the cathedral. 12:51. OH MY GOD WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON!!! The cathedral is rumbling like it is getting demolished but people won't do that so it must be an EARTHQUAKE!!! I said softly to my family "go get out of here" so I pushed them then I said "I love you so much be safe and boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooom..................................................................

The Mount Erebus disaster. Firstly they entered a series of coordinates into the aircraft computer (to tell aircraft where to go) but unknown to them two coordinates had been changed earlier that morning. When they entered the coordinates into the computer it changed the flight path 45 km to the east. Because of this the pilot thought they were flying over flat ground when he dropped lower to give the passengers a view. But the change in the coordinates meant instead of flying over McMurdo sound they were heading across Lewis sand towards 3794 m Mt Erebus. Because the white ice of the ground blended with white ice of Mt Erebus with no contrast to show slope of land so that made a whiteout. The deck attitude device (saying near ground) went off but it was too late to do anything so the crashed into mount Erebus.

Dear diary I am having a good day because we are going to Antarctica from Auckland NZ. I have a bad feeling because I hate planes cause they get rocky and they crash. We are crossing the sea and we are above the clouds. It is so sunny above the clouds. What the hell we are going across some snow but its all white and I can't see anything except white. I hope the pilot knows what he is doing. Whoa whats going on there is an alarm and we are about to crash!!!!!!!!!***

Tangiwai Disaster The tangiwai disaster was a train that went over the bridge. The Tangiwai Disaster happened on 24th of December 1953. It killed 151 people and destroyed two carriages. When the train was going there was a terrible storm that caused the river to flood weakening the bridge. The first two carriages went straight through the bridge but the others didn't.

Dear diary

I'm taking the train cause it is traveling all over the north island. It's really rough weather outside. It's raining harder than I thought. There's lightning, thunder and the wind is blowing very hard. The train's starting to slow down now but it's still going really fast though. All of a sudden I'm smashed into the seat infront of me. There are screams everywhere, from each carrige. My carriage quickly drops and everyone is screaming. There's a huge BOOM!!!!!!! and the carriage fills with water all the windows break and the doors fly open. The water rushes in and I hold my breath. When the carriage is full I make for the door and rush my way through. I swim to the surface and head for land. I don't see anyone else come up and I start to cry. There are loads of dead people coming up from under the water. There are people coming down the side of the hill to the river now and one of them helped me up out of my spot on the wet rocks. They said that I was a very very lucky person because I had survived and said I was the only survivor. I was never going to ride a train alone again.
