Chapter one:
It’s funny how water acts all innocent.The sapphire blue waves splash gently against the happy children whilst they play.I watch them sadly as i remember my childhood holiday at the beach in Thailand.It definitely wasn’t as nice as today.
It started when i was on holiday with my parents.The waves splashed violently against the frightened children.
Chapter two:
The earth shook and we could tell something was wrong.We waited.It was an earthquake of magnitude 8.8.A tsunami occurred after it as it was so close to the Indian ocean.Many people died and over 25,000 hospitals,businesses and homes were destroyed.4,812 people were confirmed dead,8,457 were injured, and 4,499 were missing after the earthquake struck.This was the deadliest tsunami that Thailand ever had.
Chapter three:
One this day,ten years since the earthquake struck,many countries had recovered from painful memories and some ruined structures remained in place.Since 2004 it provided 4,807,000 people with assistance,51,395 new homes have been built;289 hospitals and clinics built or rehabilitated.Pledged international aid from all sources for recovery has topped $13.5 billion,almost half of it given by private individuals and organisations.
Chapter four:
This horrifying memory,is the worst memory i can remember being at the beach.It is literally a beautiful nightmare!I don’t think i will go there again.But,will i?Maybe,to see how it has changed,maybe not.
