SIMDOG Forums Junkie Location: Bayside Melbourne. Registered: May 2003	Re: Tsunami Wed, 29 December 2004 08:07 I've found out more info on my aunt and uncle... They were on the ground floor of their hotel when the first wave crashed through the walls showering them with bricks. The water then carried them both a long way inland into the jungle. As they were scrambling uphill to safer ground the second wave hit and dumped them into an area of thick mangroves where they were trapped. After some time, a local man heard their cries for help and returned with a machete and hacked his way through the dense bush to get them out. My two cousins were on the second floor and were therefore not washed away with their parents. My uncle has a smashed knee, 3 broken ribs and has lost a lot of skin from being dragged so far. My aunt has a broken pelvis, severe abrasions and bruising. Very lucky to be alive. They both said they were close to drowning a few times and were lucky not to be hit in the head by the bricks and other big objects. [Report message to a moderator]
