After the deluge: part 2



continued from yesterday’s blog

The main road from village was open again this morning, albeit under the watchful eye of the fire service in case of further landslips. The rain has stopped.

However, the village school is closed because the teachers can’t get here – this never happens in winter. Many people are unable to go to work and instead are busy on their farms and homes. The main road through the valley is still impassable in a number of places.



























The meadow grasses are battered and ready for the first mowing. The mix of flowers and grasses looks good enough to eat. No wonder cattle in their stalls are bellowing to be let out. A few are grazing on the ski hill behind the church, their bells clonking a musical background to the sound of the stream rushing through the village.

Life in Embach is returning to its peaceful routine.
