I was safely in America, but . . .

I used to take Taekwondo from a Thai man and his wife (see them here), and they happened to be on a chartered boat in the Gulf of Thailand, scuba diving, when the tsunami hit. They had some of their Taekwondo students with them at the time. Fortunately, the owner of the boat suspected something weird was going on when the water level started dropping, and he ordered everyone to get to a nearby island. My friends swam and then scrambled onto the island, and climbed trees. Miraculously, they all survived. What an amazing story! I wish he would write it as an article on his web site.
