I'm on the same page with Jocasta...here I thought you were enjoying natures fury. Shows how there's two sides to every coin.....Hope all's well with you.

[gracefulloser]

I'm glad you are okay but I am so sorry about your greenhouse. I looked at the older picture, it was very beautiful. I hope with time you can rebuild.

[summerfield]

you're okay as well as your family, i take it? that's the important thing.

[Mike Parker]

Glad you and the camera are ok !!!

[Elizabeth P]

Oh no! While the beach shots show the power of the cyclone in a fun way, this is definitely the down side. Sorry to hear your property suffered damage.

[Trinda Love]

You looked so happy on the beach, but this could have ended terribly! Glad you are all ok.

[Maggiemae]

Thats a dramatic and awful shot! Were you in the Auckland or Nelson area?

[Stephanie Swift]

What horrible damage. Glad you are all right.

@roseolivia @altadc @adayinmallacoota @dide @northy @tristansmum @trinda @mzzhope @blueberry1222 @hayleymolloycook @voiceprintz @snowflakes86 @dolphin @ridley @jocasta @gozoinklings thank you all for your sympathy and kind wishes, its heavy going cleaning up, but yes we are all ok, the part the kids hated the most was being without power for two days with no computer!

[Linda]

That is such a shocker. Glad to hear you are all safe. It must be so devasting.

[Channelf]

No computer for 2 days : there's always a good side to bad things ! Nice to see all is right !

[Yao RL]

I am so sorry, I was away in Otago and have no idea what happened in your part of the world. I hope that you have fixed the missing corner.

[kali]

@yaorenliu she was a wild one.. still mired in the mess of it, but I guess we will get it sorted eventually.
