"Yes, I did. I was in Starbucks drinking coffee. And it shook pretty hard. I understand it was a 5.1 according to Google. And everybody in Starbucks was panicking. But I just sat there and I had glass over my head. So I looked up, making sure the glass wasn't going to come at me and it was fine. And then it stopped shaking, but I noticed there was a lot of crashing in the shelves of Starbucks."

7. SOUNDBITE (English) Albert Daniel, Southern California resident:
"We could hear the crashing in there. You could see the employees kind of running, scattering. One of the employees was looking inside. That's why I know where the noise is coming from. But you could tell there was things falling over inside."

"And I was working down by the water at the cafe and I just heard a big rumble and shake. And then I was worried about my mom. And she was up in our room. And I know she meditates in the morning, so she was sitting on the balcony, starting to meditate. She felt a shake."
11. SOUNDBITE (English) Trudy Novicki, Southern California resident:
"Yes, and I felt the shake. I thought a truck had run into the building. And so I stood up and looked up. And there was a one of the hotel workers was downstairs and he said, everything's okay, okay. And I sat back down again. And then she called me and told me it was an earthquake."

"My daughter in law texted us to see if we were okay. And she said, that must have been scary. And I said it was exciting. So I guess that's the difference. Yeah, I wasn't scared. I was just a new experience."

STORYLINE:
A 4.7 magnitude earthquake rattled the Los Angeles area Thursday morning, unleashing boulders onto a Malibu road, visibly shaking Santa Monica's 1909 wooden pier and jolting some people from bed. No injuries or damages were immediately reported.
The U.S. Geological Survey said the earthquake was centered 4 miles (7 kilometers) north of Malibu and was about 7 miles (11 kilometers) below the surface.
The jolt was felt as far as 45 miles (72 kilometers) away in Orange County, where people reported items moving in their homes. It was followed by several smaller aftershocks.
Officials around the region said authorities were surveying for damage, but had not found anything major.
The earthquake occurred closest to the Malibu fault, but was also near the Anacapa fault, according to California Institute of Technology seismologist Lucy Jones. Earthquakes below magnitude 5.0 are too small to be definitively associated with large faults that are mapped at the earth’s surface.
A live camera at the 115-year-old Santa Monica Pier, about 12 miles (19 kilometers) from Malibu, showed several seconds of intense shaking during the quake. Several morning newscasts also captured the earthquake live as cameras shook in television studios.
A crew was working on clearing large boulders that rolled onto Malibu Canyon Road, near the epicenter, KTLA-TV reported.
