Hidden Beautiful Natural Places
Getting to the natural landscape Salto del Usero (Usero's Waterfall) is not easy, not for its accessibility, but the lack of indications. From the village of Bullas to the Camping La Rafa, 2 Km.
A place you have to continue to protect, and still not massify.

What A Shock!
On Wednesday, back home from work, I saw a column of smoke in the distance. Arriving to smoke, I found a truck was on fire. In the image, on the left, you see the silhouette of two people, the truck driver and passenger unharmed.
That created a traffic jam of more than two kilometers on the highway Murcia - Cartagena.

New Island Formed.
The Segura River is a very calm river in the middle course, and it takes many sediments wich is deposited. Although last weekend has rained a few, many months ago has not rained a drop.
But the formation of this island has nothing to do with what happened in Japan, where it has emerged a new island because of a volcano. Here, great photos.
