Early morning...

2007.08.17
I could see the trees bending with the heavy wind blowing...

... I was behing the glass door, it was very impressive

The garden in front has lots of broken trees

We could not see the south of the island

I'm fine and so is my family
Thanks to all of you for your nice messages
In the island lots of trees on the floor, lots of houses without roof
No phone, no water, no electricity for many until now
I can say that I'm lucky, we always had water, and stayed just one day and a half without electricity
These are the first shot I took...
around 5:30a.m. for the 2 first while the wind was blowing and the sun trying to give a little light (Sorry Christine I could not help...) and then, when the rain stopped a little may be around 10 in the morning for the two last.
That's the views from my appartment

domino ça faisait quelques années que nous n'avions eu un cyclone de cette ampleur! espérons qu'il sera aussi le dernier de la saison!

noptek Ces images sont assez impressionnantes. Cela doit être une expérience un peu extrême de se trouver confronté à de telles forces de la nature
