Bus Accident Kills 27

On Febuary 23, a bus crashed and killed 27 people that were inside it.  The bus was on it's way to the Lima, the capital of Peru, when the driver, according to peliminary reports, lost control of the veichle.  







Earthquaaaaaake!..... Drill

One particular that caught my eye over the weekend took place offshore just outside of Lima.  It appears that a couple of tremors were felt throughout the capitol city around noon on Saturday.  What was strange about these tremors was that they occurred just a couple of hours before the National Defense Institute was to coordinate a nationwide quake and tsunami drill.  Great timing I guess.
