Pomona Rubbish Dump

For a few month now, rubbish collection is nonexistent in our area. So we drive our rubbish regularly to the dump. Today it was my turn.

I felt like in a documentation film. Lots of people seem to live in between the little hills of rubbish. Here and there you see small piles than seem to be their shacks or a few maize plants. Some of the "hills" are slowly burning away. As soon as you stop the car a crowd of angry looking dirty people comes running to see what you have brought. The smell almost makes you faint. You can hardly open the door as people are pushing towards the car trying to grab everything that is inside.
