For the first time in the history, our house in Bacolod was flooded with water – about 4″ inches deep. My sister told me that the level of water outside our house was about 3″ and 4″ deep along the streets. Whoaahh!!!

So while we were re-organizing stuff at home, we found some old stuff that have been kept for so many years…stuff that unfortunately also got wet during the flood such as these antique cameras owned by my dad: [...]
