Landslides!


When you live in the jungle in the mountains of Papua and get lots of rain, it is inevitable that landslides will happen! 

While we were in Malaysia, we had a few landslides happen. Thankfully no one was injured and doubly thankful that no one died!  It has been said that we received five inches of rain in two hours!

Today, Chris wanted to take me for a drive to show me some of the landslide areas. 

On the down hill side of this yard is where the next few pictures happened. 





A couple new deep voids out of the side of the mountain. 


Part of the mess on the other side of the road. 

Another void. 

I don't have the pictures, but there were many busses and LV's (the white trucks) abandoned on the road. It's a good thing as they were playing bumper cars with the debris. Again, thankfully, no one was hurt! :)
