Deja Vu!!!
27 February 2010 | Ala Wai Harbor, O'ahu

Okay, who says we don't know how to show a guest a good time!!! Chapter 10 of our book is entitled... Treat Your Guests to the Peril of Tsunami!!!! Didn't we just go through this?!!! What are the odds that we could be in the "right" place at the "right" time for two tsunamis within such a short period of time? Maybe we should start buying lotto tickets!!!! Anyhow, will make this short for now but wanted to let everyone know we are safe and sound and tied back up in the Ala Wai Harbor near Waikiki on O'ahu. Gladys and Dan are still with us and aren't even threatening to jump ship any time soon!
We "sat" this one out in deep water while in transit from Maui to O'ahu early this morning. Thankfully, we were up at 1:45AM to get underway to beat some strong winds predicted for later tonight and tomorrow - we turned the radio on at 2 this morning to hear the wonderful news. It was comforting to know we had so much time to get to deep water this time - nothing like the fright of abandoning the boat and running for high ground. When we were getting close to O'ahu, we could see and feel the swell change direction and strength, but other than that, nothing! Yahoo! :) Thank you all so much for your calls and e-mails - we feel so blessed to have so many wonderful people who care about us - big hugs to all!
PS - The picture shows a few of the hundreds of boats that were out in deep water waiting for the all clear signal to go back into harbors - we were so thankful the call came and we were able to get tied up without any ordeal this time!
