21、Early on the morning of December 26th, my friend Eric and I went down to the beach in Sri Lanka for the first time. We noticed that the sea had gone a long way out but this did not mean anything to us. We had been to Mombassa several times and at times the sea had gone right out to the reef (樵). We also knew that it was a full moon and thought it may influence (影响) the sea. We didn’t realize how many more Sri Lankan families would be killed because it was a holiday and they were on the beach.

I left Eric on the beach and went for a walk down by the sea. I must have gone about a quarter of a mile when I met a fisherman. He warned me that there was something wrong with the sea, I told him that I knew the waves were strong and I didn’t want to go swimming. He said, “No, madam, no — there is something wrong with the sea.” He walked with me until we reached his village. As we reached it, a huge surge (波涛汹涌) of water almost knocked me over. He held me fast with one arm and held on to a tree with the other. The villagers were all crying loudly as furniture and other things floated (漂浮) from their houses. They all started running back across the railway lines directly behind.

The fisherman took me back to the railway lines and we sturmbled (蹒跚而行) along there until we came up behind Eric. I shouted that there was something wrong but Eric just did not believe me and thought I was out of my mind.

At that point, from my higher point I could see the sea rising in its bed. It just continued to rise and came towards us. Eric moved quickly with great difficulty and we escaped the third and final wave. We heard later that not one tourist at Yale Safari lodge (小屋) remained alive to tell the story.

Although we were anxious (焦虑的) to make our families know that we were OK, leaving Sri Lanka was one of the hardest things we had ever done.
