Earthquake

Xela had an earthquake two days antes. I was laying in bed, and all of a sudden, the ceiling started to awaken. This went on for about 10 seconds, and then my bed began to shake and the windows rumble. The owners didn`t seem to react, and there was nothing on the news. So, not quite sure what happened, I threw on a pair of pantalones, placed my sandals in front of the door and went back to bed.

The next day, I asked a few people if they had felt anything the night before, and they said ¨si... there was a 4.0 earthquake¨.

Apparently, earthquakes are a regular occurrence for Xela, and the locals think nothing of them. They also say that after an earthquake, the following days rain is much heavier, which indeed, it was!
