EARTHQUAKE
Here we are again. 3 weeks have passed by and we have had some more interesting experiences. On Nov22 we were invited to a family from Belgium for thanksgiving supper. There were 2 other guests besides the host family and us. We had just completed the main course when the house started to shake. We were having an earthquake!!! We got up from the table and went to stand outside in a somewhat safer place. We could see the light standard swaying back and forth and also they had a one story water tank for catching rainwater, and it was sloshing over the sides. It was a pretty wild ride.... After a few minutes we went back inside and enjoyed our dessert. The next morning we heard it had been a 6.1 on the Richter scale. We have not heard of any damage but apparently this was the strongest earthquake the missionaries here remember having.
