Translation of mudslide in German

So we decided to move on. We were looking to get the next flight to Hoi Ann, which is located right in the center of the country, but we were told that there had been floods a week earlier.
thanks for the compliment! Can you understand me when I write in English? Spanish sounds so beautiful when spoken. I would really like to be able to speak Spanish fluently, since I am planning a trip to Peru.
I gotta tell you, that I am not really good at it. I've just passed the first lesson and I had more than 35 mistakes, out of 25 words, funny isn't it. What languages do you speak? Write me soon please.
