Something very strange. A fire spread in the Delta island
s 11 days ago, and they still haven't been able to put it out. I think those islands are about an hour away from here, and today, the whole city is under smoke. It is so gross. I'm enclosing links to articles about it that have videos, so you can see what it's like.http://www.lanacion.com.ar/informaciongeneral/nota.asp?nota_id=1005525&pid=4300547&toi=5831
In this picture you can kind of tell how the buildings look blurry. And so now, since the government is still having issues with the campo, they are blaming it on the farmers and saying that they did it on
purpose. Anyways, for once, I am hoping that it rains soon! Also, roads are blocked in the north going in to Buenos Aires because the smoke is so bad, there's not visibility. There has been a bad accident because of it.Here is also a picture of me when I went
to el Tigre. I only saw a part of it, and it really reminded me of a lake, where people have a lakehouse and are doing water sports. It's not really islands, more like land that has a bunch of tiny rivers running through it. So people around there travel by boat on the litter rivers! (like behind me in the picture) The water was really really brown, so it wasn't too pretty. Some peopl
e have told me it's because of pollution, and others because of sediment washed into it. I think I believe the second. I don't think the area with the houses got on fire, the area that I saw, I think it's further out where they have farming. What a crazy thing to happen though, right?
