Safe and Sound....

just a little post to let everyone know we are safe and sound. Thank you for all the concern for Robb and I. We actually had no idea about the earthquake until one of our friends here asked if we had felt it....we were taking a nap when it happened. Our really good friends who live a block from our dorm experienced it and it was quite traumatic for them...they live on the 18th floor of their building and her husband works on the 42 floor of his office building and Char saw the light in her house swinging and felt super dizzy and as she made a mad dash for the stairs and went outside, all the buildings around her were being evacuated and it was chaos! She was calling her husband as she watched his office building sway back and forth. It was a scary time for the world outside our dorm, as Robb and I caught some extra zzzzz's and were oblivious to the earthquake. We are happy, and look forward to being home in just two weeks! Please pray for those who were hit hardest by the earthquake....there are 10,000 dead, and more trapped. We are certainly blessed and lucky. Thanks again for the concern....our love to you

Hey friends.... I was thinking about you and It's really good to hear you're ok. It sounds like you are having many wonderful adventures. Have a few for us as well:) Take Care, Heidi Andersen

Okay, that's crazy! I have been planning on contacting you since I first heard news about the quake. I had no idea Heidi was even considering it.
For the record, I have been thinking about you two way more than Heidi! She just beat me to checking in with you. She's impossible to keep up with! :) ...but, man, I love her more than life!
Love you too,
Brother Troy

I am so glad to hear that you guys are safe. I was so worried that I kept calling Jen to ask her if she knew anything. Lots of love!

Rob, I am not even sure how I got here. Wow you are in China. I have been there. I have been to the Hong Kong Temple also. Really cool. There is a place there by the Harbor that serves Chinese Food, they have a man that makes noodles by whipping the dough around. It is really neat. You can ask anyone there if they know where he is. Maybe he is gone now. Glad to hear that you are ok. Be careful. Mary Zollinger
