I have been following on the various media and it’s all quite shocking. I hope you have everything you need to get by for the moment. I shared a very sad post on my FB of 2 brothers who have lost their 10 year old sister, their mom and their Gran as well as their house and all belongings. So very sad… sending love from the Cape. Xoxo

Hi @zo3d, the tragedies we're hearing about are just awful. That young girl went to my brother's old school. There are many bodies still under the mud in the townships so I can just imagine the trauma they're going through!
But the noise when that mudslide started from the school bank in front of the second house from us, will stay embedded in our minds forever! Hearing the screams was terrifying as we thought they were trapped; it's only God's grace that saved them, as it took seconds for that wall of mud to hit their home and bulldoze right through it!
They say we can expect more of these natural disasters due to climate change!
I do believe that many municipalities are not following proper engineering principles nor keeping a check on building operations like they used to!
Thank you for your kind message, stay safe in the Cape 💞
