You might of heard on the news that peru was hit by an earthquake measuring 7.5 on the ricter scale. Thing is my mother-in-law (Mrs EXJ's mum) and partner are currently travelling the length of south america on a XT600 (they've also travelled from Dunstable to India, north west Africa and through Iraq,
Jordan.....well the list is endless) They were only 100 miles from where the earthquake struck and we got a phonecall from her this afternoon to tell us they were okay, She reported that she thought they were gonna die, the most frightning thing they've experienced. Apparently there was a mud built church where the quake was that was full of people and that collapsed killing everyone so bang goes my faith in god. The worrying thing is they have no water as the quake has cut the supply off and they need a new rear tyre and were going to get one in peru's capital. We're just waiting to hear what they're gonna do next.
