Australia Flood

When the news came out I was totally shock. My dream place was damaged by the muddy floodwater.  I couldn't image the beautiful Brisbane heaven became a hell.  When I was in high school, I dreamed about going to Brisbane after college graduate. I wanted to go to Brisbane and enjoyed the working holiday. Everyone liked to go to the South Bank Parkland. It was well-known for its Street Beach. The Street Beach was an artificial beach in the city. People went there and enjoyed the sun tan,  had barbecues along the riverside and all kind of activities. But we couldn't see those scene for a while. The beautiful scene were gone because of the muddy floodwater. Everything were still  inundated with water and people didn't know how to clean up all the muddy things. The flood lasted for weeks and then there was a cyclone after the flood, it made the condition more worse. The floodwater were expected to rise more before they recede. They call it the 'King Tide,' the biggest tide of the year.  People started to worry how they can survival with no home or money.

I still remembered the 88 flood in South Taiwan about two years ago, it was totally liked hell.  We couldn't see nothing but lots of soil. People definitely felt very hopeless and they didn't know where their future was.
It would take a long time to recover everything. No matter how long it would take, people would do their best to restore their hometown again.
