Tsunami!

We picked a great day to move to New Zealand's coast. Last night we stayed at Larnach Castle in Dunedin. At breakfast this morning the server announced that there was an 8.8 earthquake in Chile and a tsunami was racing across the ocean and was set to hit New Zealand's coast in about a half hour. We all gathered around the one TV to watch coverage and some of us stood watch on the cliff to view the sea. So far, nothing, but we are still waiting.
