Well, I'm still missing out on the whale shark experience, but I've now experienced a pretty good earthquake. It was a 7.1 on the Richter Scale, and my apartment building on stilts was a-wobbling. The quake was off the coast of Roatan, which is the island northeast of Utila. As far as I know so far, no serious damage occurred in Utila, though there were certainly casualties other places in Honduras. We were all shaken awake at about 2:30am, and every tiny movement after that woke me up.
I just wanted to write this quickly so everyone would know that I'm safe. Now I have to run to assist on another rescue diver course. It's a shame I have to go barefoot since my sandals broke on the way here this morning...

ReplyDeleteGlad to hear that you are okay (minus the broken sandals)
ReplyDeleteWelcome to the club! I'm glad you are safe and that there was no tsunami. Have been enjoying reading your posts. "Horny Roaches" is a classic, and the thought of it puts a smile on my face. Thank you for that.
