We found out about the earthquake when Emily checked facebook this morning and friends were asking how we were. We did not feel anything here nor did we notice any tsunami action. We live about 200-250 feet above the level of the ocean. We do appreciate all prayers for our continued protection as this area of the world does experience earthquakes as well.

We spent a good part of the day (at least it felt like a good part of the day) at the Indian Market doing some more souvenir shopping. It is a large place and many booths offer the same kinds of things. Some of us find the acquisition challenging and invigorating as you are expected to haggle over the prices. Others of us just want to sit in the shade. You can try to guess who is in what category in our family. We then went to lunch at a place called Pardo's Chicken famous for it's Pollo a la Brasa or rotissiere chicken. It was delicious! When we left, we took our leftovers in a styrofoam box to give to a little girl we had seen selling candy on the way into the restaurant. We looked for her when we came out and didn't see her. While we looked, a woman asked us for our leftover box and we gave it to her. It is hard to imagine being in that position.
