From last week till now, more than 600 people have died in the state of Rio de Janeiro. Beautiful cities like Petropolis, Terezopolis and Nova Friburgo, once filled of tourist who were looking for peace, fresh air and wonderful views.<br />We have no idea how to "fix" the cities, and we know we'll never be able to "fix" the souls of those who've lost everything, every detail of theis past and history...<br />We're too sad.<br />God help us all.Mimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17833629803950947345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2588562210437039078.post-47571781453296775662011-01-18T04:27:03.559+10:002011-01-18T04:27:03.559+10:00This is so tragic - our hearts and prayers go out ...This is so tragic - our hearts and prayers go out to all of those affected.

So now, in short, I just want to say how sorry I am to hear and see this. I am from Iowa in the U.S. and other than the deaths ( we were unbelievably lucky) I understand first hand what you are going through. <br />I'm not going to lie to you. There are some very difficult and frustrating days ahead and recovery from this type of event is slow. With a tornado people have insurance but many of the people in our area didn't have flood insurance and that has complicated and really slowed our recovery. It has been two years since our flood. I posted one month after, one year, and two years into our recovery if you are interested in what to expect in the months and years ahead. You can find it all archived under Rebuilding Cedar Rapids.<br />You are in our thoughts and prayers.<br />Hugs to you and your community.<br />Pam @ BeColorfulBeColorfulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02183413145026568147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2588562210437039078.post-10994855143994308592011-01-18T01:19:32.235+10:002011-01-18T01:19:32.235+10:00Anna, my dear...

We're having the same problems with flooding as you guys in Australia.

(that's what I refer to any land that was spared). Your gorgeous things would not 'do mud' that well. As I said to Simone (Beach Vintage), I need to go shopping for something pretty for my walls/high up. A sort of, 'yay, we were spared' present. If anything in your shop comes to mind for my 'humble digs', let me know! :) See you back at school!

They're now living just off Oxford street and luckely they're also fine. But the devistation is enormous and the worries overseas from her family huge. My heart goes out to those who have lost in this flood. I know people say it's just 'things'. In one way that is true but those things come with a lot of memories. <br />All the best,<br />Caroline from the Netherlandslillelykkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08707410706202390727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2588562210437039078.post-62830372169886428632011-01-16T14:05:48.349+10:002011-01-16T14:05:48.349+10:00I am sad for what is happening in your beautiful c...I am sad for what is happening in your beautiful country.
