My wife and I are on a 900 passenger crusie ship in the Caribbean. We are heading toward Roatan, Honduras. In the middle of the night the boat went thud, sounding like it came down off of a large wave. It woke most people up. This ship is to large to come down off of waves it and the wind is not that great. We now learned that there was an earthquake in Roatan during the night and it created a tsunami. That was the large wave we came down off of.
 
WOW, that is a bit scary. Glad to hear all is ok...... That is a lot of mass to pick up and drop down. Makes you even more aware of the power of the seas...
