This video, it's from my backyard.
Este video, es desde el patio de mi casa.
Last weekend, there was a huge fire in front of my house. There were several light bulbs here and there.
El fin de semana pasado, hubo un incendio de enormes proporciones frente a mi casa. Hubo varios focos aquí y allá.
It took us more than two days to put them out, because in Venezuela, the transportation situation is quite precarious because of the gasoline issue. The fire trucks, many of them have stopped working due to the lack of spare parts, tires and an endless number of reasons, where the culprit is a nefarious narco-government that has only sought to enrich itself and its relatives, in an illicit manner, by starving the people.
Nos llevó más de dos días apagarlos, porque en Venezuela, la situación del transporte es bastante precaria por el tema de la gasolina. Los carros de bomberos, muchos han dejado de funcionar por la falta de repuestos, neumáticos y un sinfín de razones, donde el culpable es un narco-gobierno nefasto que sólo ha buscado enriquecerse entre ellos y sus allegados, de manera ilícita, matando de hambre al pueblo.
I don't want to get involved in political issues, but unfortunately, it is a direct consequence of what we are experiencing.
No quiero meterme en temas políticos, pero lastimosamente, es una consecuencia directa de lo que estamos viviendo.
Those who were able to put out the fire were, thanks to God, the only fire truck that works in the municipality where I live, hand in hand with the guys from the Civil Defense and all the neighbors who are eager to collaborate in whatever way we can.
Los que pudieron apagar el incendio, fue gracias a Dios, el único carro de bomberos que funciona en el municipio donde vivo, de la mano con los chicos de Defensa Civil y todos los vecinos avocados a colaborar en todo lo que pudiéramos.
They were difficult days, which made it very difficult for us to breathe. When we thought that we had finished putting out a fire, a new fire was being generated in another nearby area.
Fueron días difíciles, que se nos dificultaba muchísimo respirar. Cuando pensábamos que ya habíamos terminado de apagar un incendio, un nuevo incendio se estaba generando en otra zona aledaña.
Fortunately, it was over, but it created forest devastation and the death of many small animals that lived in the mountain.
Afortunadamente ya todo pasó, pero creó devastación forestal y la muerte de muchos animalitos que vivían en la montaña.
