Holy Muifa!

We have been smack dab in the middle of Super Typhoon Muifa now for the past 36+ hours!! When I say holy Muifa I really mean it! This thing has been a beast from strong winds, torrential down pouring, flooding, and major damage. We are finally as of 1700 in Storm Watch which means we can finally leave our quarters!!! Wow, Here is a picture of what the storm started out as:
Then she decided to slowwwwwly creep over the island at around 6mph and just linger. So three days later we are finally done with this monster storm! And boy do I not wish that on anybody. Our building especially on my side had tons of water damage to the ceiling, floors, under doors, under windows, etc. This place will be STINKING with mold/mildew yuckkkk!
If we have been out of touch I apologize but i had to unplug the computer due to the flooding in the house. Here are a few more pictures from the massive typhoon that friends and others around the island have been dealing with. I really don't have anything to gripe about considering the things that others are going through!
Here is a picture of the flooding in our house.....
Those are just a few that I have stolen from friends until I leave my dungeon and head out from some pictures! But please keep Okinawa in your thoughts and prayers as this will be a huge clean-up! I know Japan has really been through a lot lately and it's the least we can do to think of their country through these natural disasters!! It's been a long 3 days so i'm signing off and going to EATTTTT!!!:)

And sooooooo thankful for the Luna Clan and Stephanie for coming to stay with us through the storm. I know it has been a long three days but so thankful to have you guys here:)))) xxoo****
