Tsunami Update - All Clear

We got the all clear to go back to our house at about 5pm this afternoon. They evacuated our whole neighborhood and we had to wait in a little bit of traffic to get back (city workers were controlling traffic access to the ocean in our neighborhood) but it looks like there was no damage. I don't think the swells even breached the seawall. We live on the China side of Okinawa and the waves were supposed to be coming from the pacific side (the other side) so maybe there were bigger waves over there. I don't know. We also have a large reinforced seawall lining the ocean by our house, so that made me feel a lot more protected. I haven't heard of any damage on the island yet, but its better to be safe than sorry.
We just hung out on base for a few hours during the evacuation. Aside from the kids not getting a very good nap, it wasn't that big of a deal. More details from our exciting day to come, complete with Matthew's third birthday celebration.
