This morning, at about 4:20 am, I had a dream. In this dream I was interrupted because giant hands took the room I was in and shook it like a doll-house. I woke up to hear my door rattling and in a panicked moment thought someone was trying to break into my room. Which was silly, because the door is not locked. But really my whole bed rumbled like a big semi was going by ten feet away.
In fact, it was an earth-tremor, quite common in Jamaica. Nothing fell off the shelves except my water bottle which I knocked over myself while reaching for my glasses :> However, all the car-alarms in the city activated, all the dogs began barking, and after they had all settled down, all the birds were chattering to eachother.
It was, for someone from the bedrock of the Canadian shield, quite interesting!
Quite interesting indeed! Talk about a rude awakening.
