Just a quick callout to see how everyone is going during what looks like a bad flood on the news reports and facebook posts.

Hi Bigjed,
All okay now. Everyone got things sorted in no time. You wouldn't even notice that there had just been a typhoon if it wasn't for a couple of trees that are still down. Power is back in most places, and the old town was barely flooded.

Good to hear. All we could see was water and major flooding but no idea where it was. 3 months and we will be there. Can't wait.

The typhoon was very impressive and did cause serious damage but the speed in which people got things fixed was just amazing. Now its sunny! Take care, Alex
