One afternoon she set out from the coast in a small boat and was caught in a storm. Towards evening, the boat struck a rock and the girl jumped into the sea. Then she swam to the shore after spending the whole night in the water. During that time she covered a distance of eight miles. Early next morning, she saw a light ahead. She knew she was near the shore because the light was high up on the cliffs. On arriving at the shore, the girl struggled up the cliff towards the light she had seen. That was all she remembered. When she woke up a day later, she found herself in hospital.Critical Safety Steps to Take Before Volcanic Eruption Occurs • Learn whether the volcano near you is active of Inactive, and then learn about your community warning systems and evacuation plans. • Prepare an emergency disaster plan for you and your family. • Prepare the necessary things needed, such as nonperishable food, flashlights, and batteries so that you can leave immediately once evacuation is issued. • Prepare goggles and masks or anything that can be used to cover your nose and mouth. • Evacuate to a place until the warning signs of a volcanic eruption has subsided.
