The second dark day...but with blue sky!

Jan 12, 2011 18:57

Today Brisbane awoke to Blue Skies but faced the second day of devastating floods.

Once again, I just sat- glued to my TV- shocked that this was happening.

It still seems so unreal because down here where I live- 20 mins from the CBD- it was like any other summer day. I swam in the pool, I played Wii, I watched the devastation feeling helpless.

75% of QLD is now declared a disaster area....this is twice the size of TEXAS in the USA....

Brisbane is the CAPITAL CITY of Queensland....it is the 3rd largest city in Australia.

The CBD is now underwater.

I have a found some vids- that I am putting here so in 3 years time (if they are still up!) I can look again and think.

This one is recent aerial footage of the city
