The night of the earthquake...


The night of February 27 I was sleeping before of watch the Ricardo Arjona`s presentations in the Viña del Mar`s festival. In that moment I was in a little city called Rengo and it is close to Talca, I was providing in the house of my aunt. In this place I was to enjoy my vacations with my cousin, uncle and aunt.

I was sleeping with my cousin in the same bed in the second floor and suddenly I wake up because of the strong movement of the house and I try to wake to my cousin, but she not want wake up. Then my aunt waked up very frightened and crying. My uncle was holding a big bedroom furniture, but we can`t to go down the stairs.
In the moment of the earthquake we had to waiting that all over and the minute was eternal and we were very frightened. Then we went to my grandmother`s house for knowing if she was ok or not.

Unfortunately the house to my aunt and my grandmother supported the earthquake. But I was very worried because I don`t know nothing about my family. Later I talk with my mother and my family was fine.

Finally with the aftershocks I`m alert all the time, but I don`t feel scared is only for precaution.

  2. Fran, I'm very happy because your family houses was good after the earthquake! and I think that you are very lucky if you could talk with your mother the same day of the earthquake, I couldn't talk with my family until later in the next day in the neighbor's telephone. My cell phone was out of order for two weeks!!!
