ANOTHER EARTHQUAKE

We had another earthquake hit Taiwan on Saturday night. This one got our hearts pumping a little more than the last two. The tremors started small, but then got much bigger...we actually felt the building sway versus just shake. The whole thing lasted a lot longer than what we had experienced with the previous two...about 30 seconds. I guess that doesn't sound like a long period of time, but in the midst of the experience it felt long. At the time of the quake, we were in a movie theater. I think being in a public place made the experience a little more intense for us as well (compared to last time when we were in our apartment).
