But when it rains for several days, water starts to stream through it and in a short period of time all kinds of plants and flowers start to grow. If you are lucky you might also come across tadpoles swimming and frogs hopping around. What makes me angry is the lack of appreciation for the natural environment of some people who litter this gem of a place with empty bottles and other rubbish.
