TierraMitica

Water, Water and more water...



The construction of TierraMitica is encountering weather phenomena that apparently occur only every 25-30 years. 




The unnatural extension of the rain period has saturated the earth to the point that it cannot absorb any more rain, causing flooding of many villages, destruction of roads and buildings and has seriously delayed our construction. 




All rural roads have problems and are at times impassable and access to TierraMitica is right now very difficult, but also the main, new and well made asphalt road has been hit with whole mountains sliding on it, making everybody wait for hours for the road to be cleared, with few cars passing once every hour while the tractors rest for a few minutes. 


Our morale high after an offroad adventure against the mud carrying materials up to TierraMitica, we wait patiently for the road to open, Shrek proudly bearing his muddy battle scars.
