Earthquake!
So lately, there have been a few earthquakes near the island. It sounds really scary, and I´ll admit that I had a good startle when I felt my bed shaking and I could hear the glasses banging together. During one of the earthquakes, they put out a tsunami warning because the water level retracted in La Ceiba. Everyone was really scared, so they all hiked up to Pumpkin Hill to be safe from any flooding from the ocean. Here in Utila not very much happened, no one was hurt or anything thank goodness. A few of the houses are pretty damaged, especially those which have stilts. Sometimes it got a bit difficult to sleep at night, because the bed shakes from the aftershock all the time. All in all, it´s not too bad and we´re very thankful that nothing has happened to us or anyone else.
