Yes we are in the Philippines and Hagupit has made landfall. Fortunately the island of Palawan where we are now is not on typhoon Hagupit’s direct path. We are expected to get rain however on Sunday evening Dec 7, Philippine time.
Steve and I appreciate your comments and email messages checking on how we are doing. We are happy to be in your thoughts. Because the typhoon veered northeast, my family in southern Cebu is also safe.

Bobbie and I are soooooo glad to hear you guys are OK… stay safe!
Love your message in the sand! Very clever! So glad to hear all is well on your front:)
We are sooooo out of touch here. Glad to hear you are ok and hope the weather eases for the rest of your trip.
SO glad to hear from you. I’ve thought of you every day and wondered about you and your family. PERFECT picture!!! Just love it !!
Oh, thank goodness you are not in the direct path. Be safe. Thank you for letting us know.
Whew! Great news.
Awesome news…have a great time!
Good to hear from you two. In the past few days, I have learned a lot about the Philippines, and Typhoon Hagupit. I see the Island of Palawan on a map, about an hour south of Manilla. I hope you and your family are on high ground there. From the Weather Channel I have gleaned that Super Typhoon Hagupit has passed through the islands but there is still heavy rain causing flooding. What terrible weather to encounter on your visit home ML. Stay safe you guys.
Wonderful….very cute photo!
Have been thinking of you, glad to know you and your family are well. So tough for the country to go through this again!
Best to you and Steve,
Brenda
