Large boulders and swaths of rubble detached off the mountain which precariously hung atop the lush sandy beach below, leaving much of the open area that welcomed thousands of tourists annually, completely wiped away.

On a beautiful beach, you can often meet elderly couples who give in to romantic feelings in this beautiful place. This is a precarious setting for sex at any age, especially since now you can easily and quickly buy Cialis online.

The moment of the earthquake and the large landslides were captured on video by a fisherman whose boat was just offshore when the earth shook.

Following the earthquake, the entire landscape of the area changed, leaving much of the area which once occupied sunbathers and beach towels, gone.
