Noora had already checked on me on FB, so I figured I'd update here too. We just had a 7.0 earthquake near Okinawa. It rattled the house for at least a full minute, enough to make my husband panic & run for the kids. But nothing fell or broke in my house. Other friends on FB are reporting that things did fall & break in their houses, but no injuries to me or my family and so far none of my friends hurt either. A few have broken items, but that seems to be the worst thus far. I've been here 3.5 years and it's the biggest and longest that I've felt thus far.
