Earthquake

This morning at 07:08 AM there was a BIG earthquake. It seems that it was the biggest earthquake since 1983 (6.5 in the Richter scale followed by 10 after shocks). The Plum Palace shook and rocked but it stood up to the challenge.

We had guests from Tucson (Terry, David, Henry & Linus) and they thought this was the coolest treat! Actually so did we.

Since we lost power after the earthquake we had no way of finding out how bad it had been. Power was restored around 09:00, and then we got calls from Mexico asking about how we were, and turned on the news to learn about it.

We're OK!.........

No going to the beach today.

Ya se podran imaginar el sofocon que nos llevamos la zarigueya y yo. Despues de solo 24 horas de la operacion y sus desagradables consecuencias, molestias, cansancio, etc., repentinamente ver yo en la tele (Cata habia ido por una torta) que en Hawaii habia habido un fuerte terremoto!!! En cuanto regreso Cata le di la noticia, la vio en la TV y le pase el celular para que hablara. Menos mal que no hubo problemas de comunicacion, pues si no........en la madre. En fin, que todo salio bien y las niƱas (tambien Charlotte?) vivieron su primera experiencia.
