I found this rather gorgeous picture of the Maldives. One of the tiny islands (Taj Coral reef) reserved for romance. But note the location of the little huts...Right on the beach front. They didn't stand a chance there. Will anyone feel safe in those Islands again? On the news Travel Agents were urging people not to cancel their holidays there. You know I refuse to be intimidated by terrorists but nature? I was wondering how the sealife and birds are affected by a Tsunami? Are they damaged in anyway? I believe there's lots of sharks and stuff in that area.
