"The thick, filthy, stagnant water forms a gigantic puddle in the middle of the street. Everything is still covered in mud. Or so the local residents thought, until the sewage cleaners from Cordoba showed up and discovered that the liquid was not mud but fecal waste. Basically, we've been surrounded by crap for weeks, sums up a disgusted neighbor."
"It is Sunday, November 24. It has been 26 days since flash flooding devastated this small avenue in the town of Catarroja, in eastern Spain, but there are things that seem frozen in time. The street still has an apocalyptic air about it that has remained stagnant. Just like the mud, like the fecal waste."
"...leaving 222 people dead and four missing; destroying thousands of homes, businesses, schools, public buildings, parks, streetlights and trees; and leaving almost everyone without a car."
"One of Catarroja's access points on November 25th. Every morning, Juanjo Moreno, whose wife Pili is a hairdresser who has lost everything, wakes up wondering if this will be the day when someone finally shows up on their street."
