Tourists from Gothenburg, Sweden, Sofia Zellin (L), her mother Catarina Zellin (2nd R) and her friend from Stockholm Fredrik Fjellstrom (R) fill the floating paper lanterns over the Andaman Sea in remembrance of the Indian Ocean tsunami victims in Khao Lak, located in Thailand's Phang Nga province, nearly 110 km (68 miles) north of Phuket December 26, 2006. Thousands of people lit candles, visited mass graves and observed two minutes of silence on Tuesday two years after an unprecedented tsunami pulverised villages along the Indian Ocean and killed 230,000 people.
