The Earth Shaketh

We were unsure if it made international news or not, but we thought we would tell everyone we are safe and sound after a 6.1 earthquake last night off the coast of Guatemala. We were having dinner with our friends Matt and Heidi last night when Brittany felt the quake around 9pm. Sure enough, we all felt it once she mentioned it, as it lasted for about 40 seconds. We were actually quite far away frome the epicenter and imagine that had we been in Antigua it would have felt a lot stronger. This is about the 5th quake we have felt since living here and really wasn't nearly as strong as the big one we felt at work about a year ago.
