Just got an email from my pal in Lima, Peru - earthquake
I am so incredably happy to have gotten the email. I will post what she sent me. Please excuse her english, it is not very good. I am just glad she is ok.
HELLO:
MY FRIEND , THANK YOU MY FAMILY AND I ARE OK.
YOU DONT KNOW IS THE FIRST TIME I LIVE AN EARTHQUAKE. WAS TERRIBLE.
COSTAMAR HAS AN OFFICE IN A BUILDING,IT HAS 8 FLORS. WE WORK ON THE FISRT FLOOR, ON THE THIRD FLOOR THERE IS A PARKING LOT.
SUDDENLY WAS 6:40PM AND SUDDENLY STARTED A SOFT MOVEMENT FOR SOME SECONDS WE WERE ON ALERT AND THEN STRTED THE BIG ONE .OH MY GOD ,WE WERE SHOUTING , THE OFFICE HAS BIG DOORS MADE ON GLASS,THOSE WERE SHAKING ,THE FLOOR ALL ,HORRIBLE.
WE RUN AWAY OUTSIDE ,THE TREES WERE MOVING GO AND BACK ,SUDDENLY SOMEONE SHOUTED, LOOK UP, THE CARS ON THE PARKING LOT WERE MOVING AND THEY WERE EXACTLY OVER OUR HEADS, I THOUGHT THIS BUILDING IS GONNA FALL DOWN ,THE CARS, WE HAVE TO CROSS THE STREET. THE CARS DIDNT WANT TO STOP BUT AT LAST WE CROSSED.
it WAS THE WORST NIGHTMARE I EVER HAD. 2 MINUTES of terror.
THE EARTH KEEPS TREMBLING EVERY DAY IN DIFFERENTE MOMENTS. I CANT SLEEP.I AM SO NERVOUS. EVERYBODY.
THE NEWS ARE TERRIBLE ALOT OF DEAD MORE THAN 500 . BEAUTIFUL CITIES ICA, CHINCHA PARACAS,LUNAHUANA HAVE BEEN DESTROYED. ALOT OF PEOPLE HAVE LOST THEIR HOUSES AND LOST THEIR RELATIVES.
WE ARE TRYING TO HELP SENDING CLOTHES ,WATER, FOOD ,ETC.
OH MY FRIEND, THANKS GOD I AM ALIVE AND CAN WRITE YOU THIS MAIL.
THANKS TO KEEP ME IN YOUR MIND , I WILL SEND YOU ANY NEWS .
YOUR FRIEND
