Local Flood

We live next to the sea. The sea level is higher than the land level. We sustain the water from getting to the land with embankments or levees. Today, some levees apparently was broken and the water got as high as the thigh around dusk. These are some pictures taken when it just started and just a couple of hours later.





I saw fishes, worms, and snakes swimming on the streets. And some men even caught a tiny crocodile (or a big lizard). ^_^

Good Morning!

It was a holiday and I went to the mountain to spend it. I got up around 8am and went outside to smell the fresh air and enjoy the sun. Then I saw dozens of bees flying over the flowers in the garden. I went inside to get my camera and went back outside. I approached them slowly, hoping not to get stung. And I took some close up shots of them which I really like. I got a picture of a bee's butt with very nice stripes, but I don't want the bees to hate me so I won't post it. ^_^ Here's another good one, which is one of my favorites.
