I led the prayer ceremony on the ·¹Çø®Ä«ÀÇ·ù=·¹Çø®Ä«³²¼ºÀÇ·ù ·¹Çø®Ä«¿©¼ºÀÇ·ù ·¹Çø®Ä«³²¼º°¡¹æ
morning of 26 December 2004, which was a Buddhist holy day. I said the prayer into the microphone, so everyone could hear it. All of a sudden, we lost the power and we felt the earthquake. I continued without the speaker afterwards.

I sat there to enjoy my ·¹Çø®Ä«¿©¼ºÀÇ·ù=·¹Çø®Ä«¿©¼ºÀÇ·ù
breakfast with the beach view. As I sat there, I felt the earthquake at around 08:00. No one panicked or worried. I continued to sit there waiting to get an emergency call.

We were on our way back from a month-long marine research trip in the Indian Ocean. We made a stop at Koh Racha Yai island in Phuket for a diving lesson for our interns. The sea was quite calm, the sky was so clear and blue. I told my team: 'What a perfect day to be in the sea.'

I took my friends from Bangkok out for a diving trip on that Sunday morning. I did this many times but my husband had never seen the underwater world. I told him it was really worth it.
