Hi bloggers and visitors! What was to be a commom night, it turned to be a dark night. Suddenly, the lights turned off but in the whole city. My daughter turned her cell phone radio and the reporters said that the blackout originated at Itaipu hydroelectric plant that straddles the border between Brazil and Paraguay, supplying both with much of energy needs. Itaipu provides more than 20 percent of Brazil's energy. Millions of people were affected by the blackout in six Brazilian states that included the cities of Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo. The capital, Brasilia, was unaffected.

My cell phone has flash light which provided light to walk, once it was a black night literally. The guards who were returned home had to come back to put order on the streets once the traffic lights extinguished, causing most motorists to nose carefully through intersections. There were many people coming back home from work, universities, schools, gyms, etc. Many people were stuck in the elavators like here. The hospitals have generator electric to supply energy shut down. The metro system in Sao Paulo and Rio suddenly halted, stranding many passengers between underground stations. A total caos! The lights only returned around 4 am.

We have to think about our planet quickly before being too late.

Hi bloggers, visitors and Cris!!! Cris is a Brazilian friend I had the happiness to find. I was looking for interesting pictures and bump into these wonderful works called Iron Sculpture of Cedrid  Borgne Geneva, Switzerland.  They seem alive. It reminds me the movie cocoon and alien people. Wonderful work. They float through the air, sit on a lake, and so on.

Have a wonderful Wed.
