The room was blacked out so we had to go in, in small groups with torches and record our reactions.= =The scene was devastating. All our homes were destroyed and we couldn't find our belongings. It was hard to believe. We were really shocked and upset and sad. Was this how other people felt after disasters struck their communities? What do you do next ? How do you cope ?=
