Typhoon...



The sun is shining in Japan today... at least for the time being. A typhoon is headed our way in the next few days, and just to be clear a typhoon is basically a hurricane! It is heavy rain, high winds, thunder/lightning and can cause a lot of damage... it's our "Irene." The rain is expected to start tomorrow and then the really bad part will be Friday or Saturday. Damian and I just got back from the commissary where we (and everyone else on base) stocked up on typhoon supplies.... bottled water, canned/non-perishable foods, snacks, etc. Thankfully our friends Bruce and Kate drove us so we didn't have to walk and carry it all!

More to come in a few hours, time to make dinner and get some QT in with my husband!
