I had trouble sleeping all night the night before. When it hit this morning, it felt like a quick dip and then a sway. It was very brief compared to my last experience in Christ Church, NZ February 2011. A cat was crying and ran to its owner as i walked around our building to survey its condition, which seemed to be fine.
