Trapped in a Fast flowing #flash #flood. No phone reception. Was pretty terrifying. So proud of my little red car who refused to give up.

Eventually rocked up at a house on higher ground. Get out of the car. Woman opens the door. "I am really really scared" I managed to blurt out. "Quick, come in" the woman says. "Will you have a cuppa tea?"
#Tea being the universal #remedy for everything in this area

This year, about 300 families from Gardi Sugdub are expected to begin moving to a new #community on the #mainland. The #resettlement plan was initiated by the residents there more than a decade ago when they could no longer deny that the island couldn’t accommodate the growing #population. Rising seas and intense storms are only making the predicament more dire.
