High tides

Recently(two weeks back) while jogging on the beach, i noticed that the waves in the sea were high, some two to three time higher i sat down on the beach enjoying the rough sea. Went back home, while surfing the TV most of the news channel were telecasting about some earthquake in Java. Then i realised they were the after shocks of the earthquake or the T.sumani. Next time i see high waves i shall run away to a higher safer place.
