more on Monday May 19th

We went to the fabric market where you can have any piece of clothing tailored to fit you. I had a suit and button up shirts made for Jeremy and a dress made for myself. While we were at the market the entire country had a 3 minute moment of silence in observance of the victims that were killed 1 week earlier in an earthquake. The death tolls at this time are about 50,000 and expected to rise. It was the quite a site to see all these people at 2:28 pay their respect. The cars were supposed to honk their horns and everything was supposed to stop. In the video you can see that about half way through the observance people got inpatient and began to walk and drive! ( as soon as I figure how to post a video I will post)
