Get To Higher Ground.. Repeat Get To Higher Ground

Yesterday was a crazy day if I should say so. I started my day off with nothing out of the norm. Watched some television with Cameron and Cody. Apparently Dr. Oz and the Nate Berkus Show are all the rave to watch out here. When they both proceeded to go off and do their own things I got down to work with what I wanted to do with my day (since I don't have a car quite yet or the hang of riding a moped down).  The first on my list was a run which in turn ended up being a hike up the hills of Bryon's neighborhood. I then layed out for a while and proceeded to burn my knee caps and my neck. Surprise, Surprise. I then read a bit of my book, Left Behind.After all this I started to unpack my many suitcases. I quickly got bored with that and began watching American Idol. 

After American Idol I went to bed. That is when the craziness began. I woke up around 11:00 pm to sirens going off. Now my first  thought when sirens go off is TORNADO. But obvious the great state of Hawaii does not have tornadoes, so I figured I should probably figure out what was going on. I went out to the family room where Cody informed me that not only was that the 3rd time the sirens had gone off (opps) but that it was a tsunami alert. Instantly I begin to panic and try to figure out where Bryon is since he was flying. I call him and find out that apparently, since we're mountain side and highly elevated, that we are in a safety zone. He then tells me that the airport is being shut down due to the fact that it is below sea level. He comes home and we watch the action outside on the lanai. The action ended up being pretty dead considering the waves ended up only being 3 feet high, and didn't do any damage (luckily!)  So there we have it. I have no been involved in snowstorms, hailstorms, tornadoes, and now a tsunami. Now all I need to go through are earthquakes and hurricanes. Hopefully I can put off those Mother Nature forces for a while.

Aloha to my friends and family,

Prayers to the people of Japan,

Jenna
