Ugh. Electric poles, trees, and debris... EVERYWHERE! Thank God the office has power. Metro Manila was in a standstill yesterday.

So far only 30+ casualties in the Metro and no serious structural damage to buildings.

Still alive and breathing. :)

Good to hear. I was just wondering how you were doing over there. Thanks for the update, stay dry and safe.

I'm glad to hear you are ok and that more people weren't killed.
