THE PROVENCE (Vancouver, British Columbia) 31 December 04
Big snake saves three
An Indonesian woman and her twin girls survived the tsunami by clinging to a large snake that pulled them back to land, reports The Jakarta Post.
The mother and twin nine-year-olds found themselves offshore from Banda Aceh when a snake as long as a telephone pole approached. She and the nine-year-olds rested on the reptile, which was drifting along with the current.

I saw an article like this before, but in that one, she just followed the snake to land and wasn't actually touching it.
