21. Irma & Geert okay in Chili

This posting is out of date order so that those reading the English blog will know that Geert & Irma are okay due to the earthquake that struck Chili today. I will translate below their first email after the quake. Postings 15-20 come as soon as possible.

AND PLEASE NOTE THAT IRMA HAS HER BIRTHDAY ON WEDNESDAY MARCH 3.

21. "Everything is in order after the shock. "

From Martin (Irma's dad): This morning Irma and Geert send the following email:

We were rather early this morning brought out of our bed through the earthquake but all is in order. It was, however, very spectacular, such an earthquake from 8.8. The house where we were sleeping is standing up; only some dishes and bookcases thundered down. No GSM reception, so back after electricity and then of course internet. We are going now to try to sleep a bit more (it is now 6:30 a.m. hier) and tomorrow help clean up the debris.
