I experienced my first earthquake today…the locals called it a shrug, I call it an earthquake. The best word I can use to describe it is unsettling. It really was the strangest feeling…left me a bit queasy actually. Having the whole building shake for the slightest second. Slight enough for me to question if it had even happened. Weird. It ranked a 3.1 on the scales which from what I can gather is pretty minor. I was definitely happy to come home to our flat screen still attached to the wall.
