Probably best I clarify - this wasn't taken at the time the supposed tsunami was scheduled to arrive. We were given the all clear by coast guards (we had all been evacuated to higher ground) after about 3 hours. There was no wave, no surge of water, no change in tide levels. There was however, a great deal of hysteria. People apparently reporting all sorts of nonsense. In particular, a couple of folk reported seeing "washing machine" like waves.... and I'm just taking the piss out of them ;)
