Today was intense. The physical aspect of the labor got a lot harder, as we hauled literally hundreds of bags of mud and sludge that we dug and scraped off of a couple's driveway. And this house was more in the heart of the damaged area, so driving through the area was a wiiild experience. I mean, we were a couple of kilometers inland from the most inland part of the bay, as in quite a few kms away from the actual coastline, and yet almost everything was destroyed and there were huge ships and barges strewn about the residential areas. It was kind of an emotionally wrecking day between seeing the devastation, getting physically exhausted, and really developing a heart for the people there as we got to interact with more victims.
