00:36We were close to Sapa.

00:38When we were here, the water will not be able to reach us.

00:45I'm afraid, because of course, you don't know if it's expensive or expensive.

00:52That's why we were here.

00:54Especially because of my children and my husband.

01:06with gusts reaching up to 230 kilometers per hour.

01:28killing 204 people and causing widespread destruction.

01:33And the rain was coming down at 4 because of this time.

01:35Because of this time, there are working with those who are electric and the pigs

01:39and the pigs.

01:40And the poor thing is the way that they're doing it.

01:42If you want to get the grow, you don't need to know when you're using the hogs,

01:45but the white dog gets used to it.

01:47I'm going to want to stay right away.

01:48I'm going to be right here, because of course you can't get the grow.

01:50I'm going to be right here.

01:51You've got to be right here.

01:52I've got to be right in there.

01:54I'm going to let you know when you know what's going on here.
