Word on the street

I 'experienced' my first guatemalan earthquake yesterday. There was pretty big earthquake that shook everyone up yesterday, except me. My friends and students told me how their houses were shaking, parking lots moving, and buildings swaying...and yet I felt nothing. For the one minute it was going on i was in a 2 minute car ride to work.

They say its hard to tell you're in an earthquake when you're driving because you arleady are moving. It doesn't help the situation i'm guessing whent he car is old and shakes to begin with..

Nevertheless, yes- the rumors are true: There was an Earthquake in Guatemala yesterday. Everyone is safe, and i couldnt' tell you what it was like even if i wanted to!
