Earthquake day

Hey, just survived a pretty decent earthquake here ...
Whilst having breakfast, at first I thought a train was passing by, then realised the railway is at the other side of town and people started off towards the door ... the girl from the hostel said - or rather cried - everyone outside, this is a serious quake, but by then it already began to subside. A little aftershock some 15 mins later ... would be of a strenght that happens about once a year ...

Also, it's semana santa, thursday and friday should be dry ... no alcohol to be sold, but apparently the only once punished are the bars, as people are getting more drunk than on other days drinking the pisco straight from the bottle in the streets.
