Share your experience. i live in hawaii and i remember waking up out of a dead sleep at 3a.m. that would have been 9 a.m. on East coast. i don't know excatly why i woke up, i fell asleep and woke up at 5:10a.m. to my sister telling that the world trade center had been hit. She had told me to turn on the tv, i did and found the world trade centers falling. All i thought about was oh my gosh where is my family are they ok, was daddy to be flying any where. My husband is in the Navy and his sub was out of port at the time and he had been sent home prior to this for medical reasons. I felt so bad for my friends that their husbands were gone.
