So at 11:54 last night I was sitting on my bed watching TV, when all of a sudden the bed started moving. It kept moving and moving for what seemed like an eternity. No, it wasn’t the beans I ate last night having an effect on me, it was an earthquake. The excellent USGS site lists it at 4.6

Here in the city we don’t get a lot of big ones. In Chiriqui closer to the border with Costa Rica there are quite a few and there is always lots of damage.

I’m from Denmark which is probably one of the most seismically inactive places in the world, so this is still pretty exciting for me. We had a stronger one last year, which I pretty much slept through, so it was cool to actually get to experience this through out. My wife being from Chiriqui hardly notices them.
