Hi all. It was a very spooky night last night (Thursday). About 4:15pm the power went off. My home and my mum's still don't have any power (Friday 1:30pm). My work place has power where I'm typing this, but apparently we shouldn't count on having power much longer. Now we have a shortage of gasoline (either the stations have run out or don't have power to pump it!) and we have been told to not use water unless we have to.
On the 'brighter' side, having candles lit all last night was nice. Neighbours were out on the streets chatting to each other. Got lots of sleep, for lack of anything to do! And the sky was filled stars that we could see in the city.
Hopefully we'll have electricity back tonight.
