That's a beautiful reminder Julie. I had friends who were there and luckily narrowly escaped with their lives. Very narrowly. They have moved along now and have put it behind them... And they still live by the sea... funny how she heals as much as she destroys. My my - you do get around! ;-)
I remember this so well. My first Christmas in Scotland. I celebrated early with friends as one of our dearest was about to fly out to Phuket. Last minute snow delayed her flight out of London. It saved her life. I'll never forget watching the devastation as the news came in. The incredible loss of life and tales of miraculous survival and near misses. Many here lost loved ones, too. And even more rallied to do whatever they could to help. The scale of it though. How could we ever forget. Lovely tribute, Julie, so very poignant. Lizzy
well done, julie - five years and those images are still etched in my brain, but people are living with the tragic events that intruded upon their lives. i wish them peace and love. x
Precious girl...thank you for this poignant memorial. Have listened to a few survivors re-telling their stories in the last week on the radio. Makes your soul ache.
That was very thoughtful of you Julie, how the time fly's in our busy lives, thanks for reminding me to stop & think about about the familys who lost there loved one's on that awful day!!
oh yes...i will never forget the footage on t.v! mother nature reaking havock! so, you were there the year after? a very nice memorial from a very nice woman. hope your holiday was wonderful. erin
Oh, Julie! Thank you for making this post... I know many pople, who lost their beloved to the sea, that day! It was a terrible, terrible tragic day, for all of us.
Hey Julie, So kind of you to remember this event and the poor people who lost their lives.... made even more tragic that it could have been prevented! Nature is so humbling!
You were there just after? Woah! I remember seeing the news on the television in the Latin 1/4 in Paris. I thought I must have flown right over it on my way there.. That left me with a very weird feeling.
