Are we quake magnets?

Before going on with the usual post I figured I'd best let everyone know (hi moms!) that we are perfectly fine. We are a ways away from the epicenter of Temuco and can't say we felt any rumbles.

However, the more interesting news is that this is where we are headed. Actually, our most southern destination (to add a spoiler) is Pucon, which is just southeast of Temuco. Seriously, nothing much the entire year...but now?

When we asked about the quake at the hostel, one English-speaking chap laughed, commenting how you feel rumbling every day. He said "It's the days you don't feel rumbling that you get worried, as then the tension is building up."

So we'll see what the days ahead hold. In the meanwhile it is status quo!
