Kao Lak 26 December 2004 , (39 images) Pictures from Patong Beach Phuket. We saved our lives because our son Martin warned us early in the morning when the earth quake came. He warned us all about flooding danger. We calmed down all saying this is not so dangerous. And we forgot it until I saw the boat lifted high up in the sea water. We were all at the pool at then. I yelled and warned all because I by instinct knew the Tsunami was there remembering Martins words. We saved many lives at the hotel in this way. Thank you Martin. Photo: Knut Øyvin Skaar - Bangkok
