Il Terremoto!

So just as I was saying things weren't so exciting, we have an earthquake! Well it wasn't quite in Roma, it was mostly situated in the town of L'aquila in the province of Abruzzo. However I was woken up in the early hours of Monday morning from tremors here in Roma. It lasted about 10-15 seconds and had enough force to shake my cupboard doors open! I must say, I never even realised Italia was in an earthquake zone, so at first I wasn't quite sure what had happened.

We have had another couple of tremor's since, none quite as big, but it is rather concerning. Hopefully it stops soon!
