The night Katelijne was on fire!

This is totally unrelated to flash or even webdesign in general but really crazy nonetheless.

I was driving home from a late meeting and suddenly spotted a huge cloud of black smoke hanging above my hometown. While getting closer and closer I started to see the flames coming out above the houses and by the time I was in the middle of my otherwise so peaceful hometown all I could see was smoke, fire and firemen. I grabbed my camera and got out of the car to take some quick shots of this absolut crazyness.

* In 2009, the turnover of the Auction of Mechlin amounted to 178 million EUR.
* Almost 40% of all Belgian horticultural products are sold at the Auction of Mechelen.

Anyway, enough facts: see some pics!
