Typhoon Yolanda, the aftermath and relocation...

Well, after two incredibly trying months, we have relocated back to Mactan Island.  After the Bohol earthquake in early October and then the super typhoon in early November, we are exhausted yet grateful to be safe and healthy.  Just about the time the infrastructure and electric was being restored in Bohol from the earthquake, the typhoon knocked out all chances of normal habitation on the island.  So many lives have been lost and destroyed as a result of these two natural disasters.  We were able to help those closest to us and wish we could do more.  Our one year old daughter is obviously our number one priority and she is adjusting well.  I will update later with photos of the aftermath, the typhoon known as Yolanda...

Super Typhoon Haiyan expected Thursday or Friday...

As many in Bohol are recovering from last months earthquake, weather forecasters are telling those in Bohol and other Visayan Islands to brace for a possible super typhoon.  Though it's early to tell, the projected path brings the storm through the middle Philippine islands with wind speeds in excess of 230kph...
