There is a great section about the large volcanic caldera that lies underneath the city. Looking at this made me glad to live in Chch. A new volcano could emerge anywhere within the greater Auckland area at any time. It happens every few hundred years and there would only be a day or two of warning. I would take earthquakes over a volcano any day.
There is even a house you can enter that simulates what it would be like to be living in Auckland when it happens. James looked at Tracy and asked if the house was going to shake? When she said yes he bolted. I guess he has experienced enough real earthquakes that he doesn't need to experience a simulated one.
