We are fine. We received calls and messages finding out whether we are alright. However just 2 hours from here is in flames. And there are couple of fires around New South Wales. Its not threatening houses for now. The cooler temperatures yesterday and today is helping. But the situation in Victoria, Melbourne is very bad.
Firemen are stretched to the maximum. Help from NZ and America has come to put out the fire. There are some heart breaking stories in the news every hour. Its really sad. Just days ago the economic crisis was the biggest worry. But now surviving the hottest element is the only one thing on every one's mind . Loss of lives has soared to 173 with hundreds still missing.They are still hunting down the arsonists. They should be hanged. To me this is equivalent to plotted mass murder.
I just pray that some of the heavy rain that Queensland is experiencing will pour over Victoria and put out the blazing arms of fire.
