Andrea Davis and her husband Laurence talk about their experience while on the Concordia.

It's been one year since the Costa Concordia ran aground and sank off the coast of Italy, killing 32 people.

Calgary couple Andrea and Laurence Davis were on board the ship that day.

They recall hearing screams, breaking glass and utter chaos.

"We made our way out through the crowds, there was no direction, the staff didn't know what was going on ... they were ill-informed," Andrea said. "Everybody was just rushing and dashing to nobody knew where."
