*gulps* That's never a good thing. It's worse that it happened so close to the island as well.

No need to worry...I bet Achilles was probably on the beach and tripped, causing the "earthquake."

Ha! Thanks mega! ;-)

The quake was no big deal really, no direct deaths, but one old lady had a heart attack shortly after it struck. Coincidence or stress maybe.

At the time of the quake, I was at a bar with some friends having some cocktails made for us. We were sitting on some stools in the window, and I was just about to recieve my Margarieta, when everything started swaying back and forth. "That's funny..." I thought. "I haven't even had anything to drink yet!"

"Its an earthquake, do you feel that?" one of them said said. It was a kind of gentle rocking where we were in Taupo, but definitely the strongest quake I've felt. You could see all the cars in the street rocking back and forth, and it took ages for the lights to stop swaying. Quite an experience!
