Had an adventurous night on the Big Island of Hawaii. We evacuated ourselves to higher ground and, with a crowd of parked cars in pitch black, waited for a tsunami to dramatically snuff the coastal lights below us at 3:30 am local time.

Never happened although parts of Kona just down the coast were run over. Slept in the car until dawn and then did some early morning exploring up near parker ranch until hearing we could return.

Although we evacuated ourselves, the entire hotel population was eventually removed and taken away in buses.

Can't go in the water yet but things are settling down.

Fun night actually.
