Aftermath of Katrina

Narrator:
This town is definitely tore up.

Narrator:
I think it's about day 17 or 18, uh, I've got sleep deprivation so please excuse me for not remembering exactly how many days after Katrina this is, but we're close.

Narrator:
[signing off] Larry Wayne, special assignment, downtown in what has been a destroyed city, soon to be, um, soon to be a, uh, more vibrant city I think maybe one day, but it starts right now. It starts with the cleanup process which is going to take literally months. Back to you.

Narrator:
So as I toured around the city, my personal thoughts is that it's pretty tore up.

Narrator:
Things have drastically slowed down since the, uh, city started f - uh, uh, taking the, uh, water - [laughs] - taking the water out of the city.

Narrator:
A lot of destruction here. Trees, vehicles turned upside down. It's a mess. A lot of people lost their lives there. So sad. But because of that I think it's going to make the United States a bit more prepared should a catastrophe like this happen ever - if it does happen ever again.

Narrator:
[inappropriately cheerfully] Hi there, this is Larry Wayne coming at 'cha. You're watching another excursion of mine. I hope you guys have been enjoying this as much as I've been enjoying shooting it!
