I just got done reading CNN about the terrorist attacks in India. I have been trying to follow the story but a lot of it is finally coming out now since the terror was finally over yesterday. Today they had people who were in the hotel-the Taj Majal during the attacks giving accounts of what they heard and saw. One man in particular that spoke on the news gave his account in detail about what he had just experienced.
I was amazed when I was watching him speak in such a calm tone about what he went through. He said it started as loud noises similar to fireworks. His wife and himself were in their room and didn’t think much of it. Then they got a phone call stating that there were gunmen in the hotel and hotel security was taking care of it. He remained under his bed emailing friends and family with the door locked for about 16 hours. Finally at that point officials were going through the halls rescuing people. I know about 200 were killed but thank God it is over and the rescue has started.
