Earthquake but no tsunami

I just returned from Manado which was incredible. But also yesterday there were a series of  huge earthquakes off of the island of sumatra. The last time there were earthquakes in that area there was a massive tsunami that spread throughout the indian ocean killing hundreds of thousands. Thankfully this time there was no tsunami. It was a horrible few hours as we all watched the news waiting to see if a tsunami would form. Also, because very few people really know the geography of Indonesia everyone was worried that I was in danger. As I live on the island of Java, far inland I was never in any danger but still. Scary times.
