It's a couple hundred km away I believe, but still far too close for my comfort. I'm sure communications are totally overloaded up and down the entire coast so I'm trying not to worry too much. She and her friend don't speak spanish so I'm a little concerned about her hearing and taking seriously any tsunami warnings.
