Book: Micronesia Moon Guide
We have survived our first ever typhoon! Typhoon Chata'an scored a direct hit on Guam, and we watched the storm from our hotel room while eating our emergency provisions of peanut butter and chocolate (no Spam). We even saw the eye of the storm. Lots of trees got knocked over. OUr hotel did not. I believe the power is still out, but there are tons of generators and the phones in our area work.
Our flight was of course cancelled as take-off time coincided with the worst part of the storm. We are on stand by for the next flight on Sunday. If that doesn't work out we won't be able to go to Pohnpei as the flight is totally booked for the foreseeable future. Nathan says next time we don't fly into the typhoon.
