Tsunami Sunrise

Its quite rare for me to be up in time to see the sunrise, but this one turned out to be worth it I think. A few minutes after taking this photo one of the resort staff came down to tell us that everyone was to assemble at 8am to evacuate up the hill as there was a tsunami alert - a few hours before, the terrible earthquake had struck Chile. We spent a rather warm few hours waiting up on top of the hill, but there was no noticeable tsunami in that area fortunately.
