This picture was taken immediately after we got back...someone missed us :) I'm not going to put picture of Charlie up. He looked pitiful. He was sick and died shortly after we got back.
The city looked the same but different from how we remembered. There were and still are signs of damage from the big typhoon that came through our area. I guess if the tree didn't actually fall, it was not high on the priority list.
Some of the trees that did make it literally had the bark blown off of them!
And then other trees fell, but did not seem to be top priority...they just propped it up with bricks until they can get to it. I'm not so sure that I would be as trusting as all these cars that parks in around and under it!
You also need to watch your step on the sidewalks. They haven't filled in all the holes yet.
All the picture below are from the day after the storm hit. It's a slow long process to clean up, but we are starting to see some things get back to normal.
