Earthquake!

Yesterday night i was dreaming...something like i was driving and taking photos at the landscape...and i woke up, suddendly. Something started to jingle, the wardrobe began to crack and there was a subtle "wooooooo" noise.

THE EARTHQUAKE!

Luckly my home was built 8 years ago while there was the earthquake in Umbria, that destroyed all the old and beautiful little cities here (and destroyed the ceiling of the S. Francesco church in Assisi).
The same destruction is now in Abbruzzo, and all Italy yesterday night felt the earthquake.
Some numbers?
The earthquake last 1 minute, and the magnitude was around 6, while the Mercalli scale was 9 (of twelve!). I'm near to all the people that lost their home and their beloved.
