On November 14 Monday, just past midnight, Kaikoura was hit by a 7.8 magnitude earthquake. In the earthquake 2 people died, and it also triggered a tsunami warning. A few boats came to pick up some people from Kaikoura and take them to Wellington. One of the ships was a navy HMNZS from Canterbury. There were about 100,000 landslides.
A lot of people in Kaikoura were affected. Hanmer Springs and Christchurch also felt the earthquake with houses, buildings and roads braking. For NZ this has caused terrible memories, phone lines downs and hardly any transportation.
