Adrian and Lesley Hughes, a British couple, were
shocked since they woke up in an empty hotel. The worst was they woke up while fires
were burning around them. One of a firefighter told Mr. Hughes that the town of Gatlinburg had been evacuated
so that they needed to pack up their belongings and "get out".
Mr. Hughes said that at about 8 pm, there
had been a line of fire from the mountain behind the hotel. At about 9 pm, the
fire had been going down to the city. As a result, a member of staff said that
they were considering an evacuation at about 11pm. After waiting for an hour,
there was nothing happened. So, the couple assumed that everything was fine and
they decided to go to bed. This incidence brought 7 people to the death and
many more people are missing.
Although the couple was in dangerous
condition, luckily they are still safe. On the other hand, I am also sad for 7
people who died in this incidence. God be with them.
