    Rick,
     
    I actually read a story about this picture this morning. The Swedish woman on the right with the blonde hair is running in after her three kids who at this point are unaware of the disater that is coming upon them.
     
    All three kids were reunited with her their mother just today after a week of being separated.
     
    Not sure about the other man and child in the picture though..

    Here is the first picture I've seen that shows a sail boat that was
    hit / being hit by the waves.

    This is picture of a large sailboat that is caught on the inside of
    the tsunami. It would appear that he made it past the first 10'
    wave and is about to be hit by another 10-15 footer.

    Be forwarned, the pictures shows people about to die. I can only
    imagine what the people in the ofrground of the picture were
    thinking. I can't imagine that any of them survived.

    Please pray for all of the lost souls and those that are trying to
    bring their lives together.
