After hearing about the typhoon on the news last night...some of you have asked how Christian is doing. And...I don't actually know how HE is doing. In his letter last time he mentioned knowing that he was getting ready and making preparations for typhoon pablo (or bopha as it's called in the Philippines) so everyday since then I have tracked where the the typhoon's path was going to be. It looks like it has not hit his island. But I think he may have had a lot of rain.
Anyhoo...in searching for this typhoon I found a very informative blog that has many live updates. I have added it to the weather section of the side bar on the left. (right above the clock)
On a good note...when he had his earthquake before...he emailed me during the week to make I knew he was ok. I'm going on the old saying...no news is good news. (unless the electricity is out...)
Sad news though the island (mindanao) specifically Cateel, Davao Oriental that did get hit has lost (last count) over 500 people (with 400 more missing). That's a lot of people. That's a lot of families loosing someone. Houses and businesses were washed away on the outskirts of the island.
Thanks for your concern about Christian. I'll keep you posted should he email me.
