    Kaohsiung, TAIWAN- EARTH TREMOR

    June 10, 2023 in Taiwan ⋅ ☁️ 84 °F

    YES, it was a special day with our visit to the incredible artistry, details and seemingly over the top number of The Buddhas we saw (there will be separate posts on them) BUT the STARTLING part of the day was the EARTHQUAKE during lunch!

    The epicenter was 29 miles from the port but only 6 miles from where we were. A magnitude of 4.7 on the richter scale. Everyone and everything is good ... no damage and no tsunami.

    TravelerI just learned about the earthquake in Japan, so I thought I’d better check on you. Glad you are ok and not too shaken up.

    TravelerWe were relieved that it was only a minor earthquake….too many other things it could have been given our location in the world!
