Hurricane Dean aftermath in Dominica


Hurricane Dean aftermath
Originally uploaded by Steve McCabe
A quick post because power is still off. Hurricane Dean really took a good whack at us; I took a quick trip into Roseau earlier today and was astonished by what I saw; lots of big trees felled (and lots of people walking around with breadfruit under their arms!), and the evidence that the Roseau river was a raging torrent. At last though the sun is out. All we need now is electricity...!

Thanks for the view. Was wondering how folk are faring there, but since I can't get the radio station there to come in any more, have been in the dark. So, I really appreciate your blog. :)k.

Hi Steve
Glad to hear you made it through ok. We've been reading your blog over the past few days as we followed the progress of Dean. We were interested as we're visiting Dominica next month and wanted to get a better picture of what goes on there - didn't expect a serious hurricane though! We'll be staying at D'Auchamps cottages on Mrs Honychurch's estate - is that anywhere near you?

Best wishes
