Earth Tremor

This evening I discovered something scarier than waiting for the electricity to come back on after a power surge in the middle of the night - an Earth Quake!!!!

Whilst there are many countries that experience this on a regular basis, I have never felt such a wave!

Just before 9 p.m. a quake measuring 4.7 on the Richter scale was felt throughout the whole of Melbourne. It was so eerie, the entire house just shook but there was no sound!

So far there are no reports of damage, Dale walked through the house but all of our cracks are old ones LOL. I wonder about the pool.... and after shocks - yikes!
