News from Antonio!

I just got an email from Antonio's best friend who assured me that both he and Antonio were safe and well.  He said that most of the city is without electricity but that he mysteriously still has electricity and internet so wanted to assure me that they were all well.  Public transportation has also been halted.   I also saw on facebook that my Chilean host brother and his family are safe so that is good.  Just some minor damage, he said.  It is just in Concepción, Talca and the other cities in southern Chile were the earthquake hit most that there is more damage. Here is a website that is raising disaster relief funds for Chile for those who are interested. http://www.google.com/relief/chileearthquake/  I will write more as soon as I hear more from Antonio.  Thanks for all your emails, thoughts and prayers.
