I dont know if you guys over there have heard about the floods destroying Queensland at the moment, my brother lives in denmark and said its all over the news there so maybe its made news in US also. Anyway, I am high and dry but only about 15 klm from the devastation but our state and cities are going under, there is no electricity in brisbane city and ipwich and toowoomba have been destroyed, there is no food in the shops due to lack of transport and drinking water is becoming affected.To put it in perspective, brisbane is the 3rd largest city in australia behind sydney and melbourne. My instructor is trapped on his property and may not get out for weeks and the city is gridlocked. Thirteen are dead already and 43 are missing, it will take years to rebuild. Looks like I may be having an unexpected break from tkd while we try and salvage what we can of the city.
