Just heard a report of someone who has been to Palmitos Park today to pick up something. At the entrance they had to give up their mobiles and cameras.
He has told of screaming Animals, the smell of burnt flesch and the devastation there. Somehow the whole situation raises a lot of questions. What did they do to evacuate the animals from 12am-7pm ?? they had 7 hours. All we so far know is that the parrots had been evacuated and the cages openend (a few minutes before the fire reached the park) Which animals have been evacuated, how many and where are they??? There has been no information on this. Somehow in every interview they talk, but you dont get any information of what has gone on.

Somehow it just wasnt meant to be.
Already yesterday ist started of badly. As i was getting Petrol for today, the car would not restart at the petrolstation. As i had trouble like this before, i thought it would be the starter. So i quickly borrowed a hammer form the petrol attendant and climbed under the car (much to the amusement of the onlooking men) All the knocking did nothing, so i opened the bonnet and had a good look. Everything in its palce, nothing loose, so it can only be the batterie. Well i bought a new batterie and the nice gentleman from the station even put it in for me. Beitrag lesen »

It is almost unbelievable, but this morning we have woken to thick fog and a cold breeze. The temperature lies by 22.1° but feels like less. It seems like from one extene to the other.
