Rain takes out or leach the good nutrients from the soil and our agriculture industry will die, then there will be famine, mosquitoes will be everywhere, and we will have catastrophic diseases! Then that is doom!<br /><br />Aaron - oh i can see you have some time for blogging now, thank you!<br /><br />Holleygarden - haha, i've just brought 3 friends there this weekend, and we again took the shortcut at the other side of the mountain. Then we went to the islands, seeing the peaks at different angles. I even taught the other campers there of the route easier than normal.<br /><br />Solitude Rising - that is not I but my sister on vacation, her first climb, i have the camera! If you just reached it the first time it is difficult to walk fast in that portion, with the tired legs, strong winds and heat of the sun!<br /><br />Kanak - you are in a higher altitude, so very much different vegetation during dry seasons.Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06044386271018560595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5003023115854661475.post-16449284588269678242011-05-16T09:23:09.953+08:002011-05-16T09:23:09.953+08:00Rohrerbot - thanks for visiting.

At least this dry season is expected to be not as long as last year.<br /><br />Honey at 2805 - Oh yes Honey, sunset is already my normal scene at my window, so the disadvantage is that even if others appreciate a nice sunset, i am not thrilled anymore as i almost got the best! haha.<br /><br />Linda Makiej - thanks for your visit, i am glad when countries of very different climates see my posts.<br /><br />Donna - we have big differences between the seasons, and the visual side is only the obvious!<br /><br />lulumusing - oh sure, we will meet again and you are always invited to visit.<br /><br />Vintagesouthernlife - if you will come here, i assure you a personal guide, I!<br /><br />Betsy - yes Betsy, the visual difference though is not as profound as the 4 seasons in temperate climates as yours!Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06044386271018560595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5003023115854661475.post-33114230120459476472011-05-14T16:27:17.747+08:002011-05-14T16:27:17.747+08:00Hi Andrea, although we complain about our dry seas...Hi Andrea, although we complain about our dry season, it never gets as dry as that!
