Last Wednesday was an earthquake in Murcia, Spain. Nine people died under the ruins and there were more than 300 injureds which caused panik in Lorca. At night, thousand of people spent the night under the open sky rather than in their homes. Eight out of ten houses in Lorca at least showed cracks after the earthquake.
Three days after the catastrophe in Lorca is now clear that more than 13.000 families can not return temporarily to their houses. Who hasn't a second home or family in the city is now homeless.
The goverment has already promised quickly help.
On Friday, in Lorca was held an official funeral for the nine victims of the earthquake.
OPINION:
It is very scary that it was an earthquake here in Spain, because it is very unusual that there is a catastrophe like this here. Normally we see that earthquakes are in Asia or America, and we only see it on TV and aren't very worried about it. But now it was very near to us, only 500 or 600 km far. It makes one think that it could happened here and not in Murica. It is a very strange feeling. Specially I was very worried because my parents were in Murcia at the same day for a boat race, but fortunately they were at another part of Murcia!
I hope that never again it will be an earthquake here!

Hi Kim! I agree with your opinion because Murcia it's not far and always we see eartquakes in Asia or America not in Spain. Yours parents were there when passed the catastrophe? It's a disaster! They have had much luck for are in another part of Murcia!
ResponEliminaWe cross our fingers for not passed another earthquake in Spain for many years.
