July 3 Floods, traffic, disaster & death

It started as a light drizzle in the very early morning then continous downpour. As usual the local gov't. delayed suspension of classes caused more problems to the students & parents alike. Good thing my kids got back home safely from school. 


Well its all work for me despite the bad weather, floods & traffic, even had a chance to go to downtown Manila late in the morning to do some business & visit some of our suppliers. Well part of it is wading through the flood & clinging for dear life at the nearest lamp post as jeepneys, trucks & other types of vehicles passed by & praying not be swept away by waves or falling down a open manhole (cover was stolen again & sold at the nearest junk shop by you know who @&$@$@!!!). Well life must go on so to speak. Good thing I got back at the office in one piece. Except for my water damage sneakers & soiled pants I'm still ok, even got my self a waterproof flashlight at dirt cheap price earlier, hope it works fine hehehe plus had stock up on food & water in my car for the rainy days ahead. 

On a sour note, death occurred in Valenzuela City, as hapless victims were crushed by landslide as their dwellings was located at a former adobe quarrying site. Anyway another disaster in the making. Waters were released from nearby dams threatening nearby areas of Bulacan, Quezon city, Malabon & Navotas. Anyway praying & hoping the rains would stop soon. 

Floating Taxi anyone? Wanted Driver, the last one just swam away for good!

 It's More Fun (err there's more Floods) in the Philippines!!!
