This island is at the entrance to Lake Conjola.
The community in the town have been through a lot in the last 6 weeks. Their homes were burnt on New Years Eve, many people ended up on the beach or in the lake.
Then two days ago the rest of the town that survived was flooded.
Yesterday the entrance to the lake was cleared and opened to the sea, easing the flooding.
My heart goes out the the people and creatures of this beautiful place. Hopefully now you can have some peace and time to rebuild your paradise.
