South Pacific Surprise - Birth of an Island

clipped from www.bentbay.dk This is such a incredible coincidence, to be able to actually see this; in the Amazing sight in the South Pacific August 2006, the yacht  'Maiken' is traveling in the south Pacific when they came across a weird sight... It was sand in the water, and floating ON TOP of the waves.. This is not a beach, it is volcanic stones floating on the water. The trail left by the yacht... And then this was spotted... ash and steam rising from the ocean... And, while they were watching... A brand new island formed... A plume of black ash...
