Yes. We headed to higher ground.

We took the dog and headed to Ken and Nancy's up the hill. Now we're just waiting for the water to rise in a couple of hours.

Yes Jorge I just read. Please I hope you and Beth and Nunu stay safe. Prayers are with you all. Here's also hoping this doesn't absolutely annihilate any of the production sets that the crew has taken so much time and effort to build.

Stay safe!!!!

Boyhowdy said...

I live up on the hill by Momilani Elementary School in Pearl City, and a bunch of folks from the lowlands have congregated in the parking lot. Looks like we dodged a bullet...the worst seems to be over. Don't need this island to submerge, right?

JoanLovesLost said...

Take care Jorge! I have family in Maui, waiting to hear how they are doing.

B3 said...

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and the people of Hawaii and Chile... Hope everyone makes it out of it okay.

Marina said...

Jorge I hope all is well and in a few hours past the danger there in Hawaii. I am Marina from Argentina, the quake was also felt in my country but in Chile has been tough.
A big hug and a kiss for Beth and for you.

Emerald said...

Stay safe and away from the shore!

Hopefully you will not get "rat visitors" that are going to higher ground, too. Just joking...but you never know. Have the video camera ready...lol!

Unknown said...

Best wishes from Italy, Jorge! Hope you all will be fine.
Keep us updated!

Michael Dines said...

Brendan said...

snuffly said...

be safe you guys!

mabochda said...

I was wondering if you guys were OK. I have a friend that lives in Hawaii also. The news said you dodged the bullet. I hope so. I'd stay on higher ground just in case an after shock sends another round.

Tom said...

Hope it doesn't rise too much. Don't want it so wash the set away as well as you guys!

InFluEnza said...

Hope that you and your family are alright, and that minimal property damage was sustained.

Unknown said...

Expert: `We dodged a bullet'
An official at the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said Hawaii "dodged a bullet".

I guess you can take that red shirt off now. : )

Prayers going up in Jesus name.

Just Jocelyn said...

Well, I for one, am glad. And now wondering how many hours ago that was (if it posted @ Hawaii time), and how you're doing now?!? All I'm hearing on the East Coast is a near 200-person death toll in Chile... :(

Jen said...

Be Safe. Sending my wishes and prayers to Hawaii and to Chile.

Anonymous said...

I hear that things are a-okay over there so far. Glad to hear my favorite cast isn't going to get in even more island trouble.

Unknown said...

I really hope to hear you back very soon, Jorge.. at the opposite side of the world, where I am, the tv announced something about an alarm in Hawaii.. I don't know anything more, but I'll be thinking of you and all the ones who are with you..
Manuela

Jules said...

I hope you're safe. The tsunami can't be a good thing. I'm also hoping that your gardening is safe... what else can we look forward to if not for your tomatoes!!??

Unknown said...

DUDE! Be safe riding out the waves. Hope everything and one is ok.

Unknown said...

Well, those of us here in the middle of the mainland (Colorado) are hearing that the waves were not as bad as those predicted. Thrilled to know you all were spared catastrophe... Still very sad about Chile.
Take care, and be safe. :)

yellowdoggranny said...

I've been watching the news wondering if it would effect you guys or the shooting of the show..
when I lived there 100 years ago..we had a flood and remember riding my bike around and the water was up past my knees..thought it was so cool.

Jyar said...

glad you are ok!
looks like the island kinda got rickrolled with the panic. oh well better safe than sorry
MAHALO from NYC

feelisgood said...

Good luck!

Me too I am still here. I was out taking photographs in Waikiki when the siren went off. I ended up staying in the Trump Hotel for two hours. They were very nice and I had a pretty view of the ocean. I am still here! lol

I hope everyone one else is safe too.

Anonymous said...

Glad to hear that the water rose only a bit for you guys. For those who are upset on a wasted day, better safe than sorry. Plus, it makes an incredible story for the grand kids one day! :)

We are very devasted. We have been waiting for this earthquake 25 years! I have 2 earthquakes in my body and the last one... was the longest horrible 2 minutes from all my life! Take care and FUERZA CHILE!!!!!

cathescomicz said...

Hoping the fishing is better in the bay now... Friends were on the Pearl Harbor Memorial- stationed- and had to stay their ground in case there was to be any recovery efforts made there. Dara said she has a surf board as part of her rescue equipment but was bummed she couldn't even get a single curl- I was just glad everyone was okay!
