On the way back, I was in a somber mood, not like interviews with people about their experiences or feelings. All I wanted was to go back, and as soon as possible.

While I wanted to get away from the dreadful flood scene, boats continued coming toward us. As each one passed, rescuers on our boat would shout out to them:

"Hey, take care, the fog is heavier along your way."

"Ok, No problem," came the reply each time.

Except for the shouting, rescuers on the boats would also gave a thumbs-up to each other, a gesture of encouragement and a reminder to slow down when meeting boats.
