Tathra Recovers Following Devastating Bushfire

TATHRA , NEW SOUTH WALES - MARCH 24: Helen Galton is pictured at her family home, which survived the recent bushfires, in Tathra, Australia on March 24, 2018. During the recent bushfires her husband Richard stayed to defend the family home. At one point water bombing helicopters dropped their payloads just metres from where he stood with his water hose. He describes the experience as Ôsurreal and terrifiyingÕ, Ôspiders, lizards and dead birds rainined down on the houseÕ he said, carried by the gale force winds fanning the devastating fire. The property next door sustained severe damage, while the flames stopped just short of the Galton's. A bushfire which started on 18 March destroyed 65 houses, 35 caravans and cabins, and damaged 48 houses. (Photo by Brook Mitchell/Getty Images)
