    I felt a little shaking at 10:19am very slight.. Near Best western Hotel/ Denny’s here in la Uruca.. I called my friend she said she felt nothing was downtown.

    It wiggled and rumbled then stopped for a second before continuing rolling and shaking for perhaps a minute or more. We were having coffee at a sidewalk café in San Vito when we felt it and noticed the windows rattling. Those walking on the street didn’t seem to notice or care. We didn’t bother to get out of our seats, nor did anyone in the restaurant decide to vacate. Siempre algo.

    I live in Northwest CR, in Guanacaste province. Where we are we got none of this that I noticed. Nada.
