Earthquake #1

Holly and I both experienced our first earthquake here on Saturday night (about 10:45pm). We had just arrived home from meetings over the weekend in Chittagong, when we felt the house shake and creek. At the time we were not sure exactly what it was as we had never experience one before. I thought it might have just been a really big gust of wind. In the morning we found out it was a magnitude 5.5 that lasted only about 4 seconds in Northwestern Myanmar as everyone was talking about it and how it woke most people up.
