We’re get the natural disasters out of the way immediately it seems. Last week we felt an earthquake in the middle of the night and classes are canceled tomorrow because of a typhoon! NO SCHOOL!!!! Today was my first full day of classes and I was already excited for the break. 7 hours of class today plus an hour and a half commute each way once made me bouncing off the walls excited to just sit at home tomorrow! Emily and I are thinking about going on our roof (our roof is half enclosed with a laundry machine and stuff and half a flat outside area) tomorrow if its not too crazy and watching some of the fun….we’ll see…..don’t worry mothers Muffett and Jefferies. We won’t do anything stupid. Besides, we’re way to far inland to get anything but wind and rain.
For those interested click here and you can see the weather channel’s interactive map of our typhoon. I’m calling it Holiday because I don’t have classes.
That interactive map looks pretty freaky. Enjoy your day off.
I have to admit, that Typhoon looks inviting! Grab a Surf Board and ride the wave. I liked your story about meeting Faith and her family. Isn’t that amazing that God finds believers in the midst of a foreign, strange land, and provides unity! Let me ask you, how long do you guys plan on being over there? Also, I make a mean rice salad, aka, i’m coming over.
when we lived on guam, we had something like 6 typhoons. I remember one, Typhoon Omar, That was particularly nuts. it was a cat 5, and sat on the island, it ended up decimating it, it was cool though because at one point the entire island was inside the eye, and you could go outside into this erie silence….
anyway, enjoy them, freeze water. we would always lose water service and power, after omar it was 3 weeks before we got them back. if you freeze up a bunch of water, you can store it.
miss ya both.
