I won't forget this!
My first time to experienced a cruel calamity in my life! The Storm Ketsana has almost erased our cities in our map. This storm has caused most of our streets and houses turned into Atlantis! Flood reached above men's height, many houses were drowned! In our house, flood has reached to chest.
I was not able to take photos myself in our house. My phone & camera has empty battery. There's no electricity. I just googled these pics.
My unforgettable experienced here was when I caught stranded on the road almost there in my way to our house because of this high flood. Last saturday from my work, boss already declared to us to go home. We left the office about 3pm.
After an hour waiting, there were no public vehicles driving along the streets. I decided to walk. Believe it or not, it's my sacrifice. I had walked a hundred miles!
Til I got there in a road by 6pm (almost near in our house) where cars, buses, trucks, jeepneys, and people are stranded because of the great flood. There were police and soldiers with their boats to rescue those who were left in the overpass bridge.
They also restricted the people to not pass along, or else, swim and die.
We stayed there til Sunday morning fighting for life against hunger & cold.
When electricity got back, news reported about 200 people found dead, and many are still missing because of this cruel storm.
Watch here a videoclip to see some terrible scenes of Storm Ketsana in our country.
