Hover over each satellite photo to view the devastation caused by the earthquake and tsunami.

Thank you for sharing - it's dreadful to see the 'after' pics.

Wow! That really puts it in perspective.

Also makes you wonder what was different in the construction of the pitifully few buildings left standing.

And hope that the people somehow made it out of there, although we know many did not.

Wow. Those pictures are very sobering. :cry: :cry: To go from a beautiful seaside to mud, debris and so much death! I don't know if my mind could ever comprehend it if it happened here. My heart aches for every person affected by this horrible tragedy.

Let's count our blessings and pray for each one affected by it.
