June 20 2008 is the date that most of us here in Aklan dread. Typhoon Feng Shen/Frank ravaged our province leaving people homeless and some even lost their loved ones.
I'm also worried since the rainy days are coming. Hopefully, it won't happen again. When I went to Libacao, it rained a bit, but I never expected the river to swell-up like this.
my trusty motorcycle, parked near Libacao's Park
the mighty and unpredictable Aklan river
After seeing the might of the Aklan river, my friend and I decided it would be best to go home because we might get trapped if the river will flood the bottom of the mountain. Rushing home, I witnessed farmers placing sandbags to save their crops, but to no avail. The water still rose over the banks and covered several hectares of rice fields.
