It is amazing that so many people had the presense of mind to help and rescue others. Mum and I were actually supposed to be over the bridge. But she was cooking and we got delayed by 30 minutes; by then the highway was closed and we couldn't get on. As I was driving, I heard what at happened on the radio; just until last week Jonas was going over that bridge 4-6 times a day. Please remember the first aid workers and families who lost loved ones in your thoughts and prayers.

Thanks for blogging. We were so worried! Hope all our other friends are well too!
Glad to hear you are safe...my first thought was of you guys because you use that bridge all the time.
Jag messade till Mir imorse, men sen såg jag deras blogg att ni var okej. (Hoppas alla era vänner är det också.) Sen har jag kollat nyheterna hela förmiddagen. Men av nån anledning tänkte jag inte på att gå in här förrän nu...Om ni orkar, fortsätt berätta hur det går med räddningsarbetet. Kramar.
Vic.
We haven't heard anything about the people we know and we hope that they are all safe as well. We will let you know if we hear anything.
Yeah, like Vic said. What are the reactions in town. What conversations do you overhear. How is the rescue work going and what hospitals were the survivors being transported to. What is the weather like and so on...
