Yesterday in an unusual move, they decided to let everyone go home at 3 pm, in a bid to get everyone home before the brunt of the storm hit. Â For me it wasn’t a big change in my schedule – I could leave two hours earlier. Â But for some of the other hard-working employees it was a big deal. Â They usually leave between 10 pm and midnight, so they got a lot of extra time.
I still had to walk through a lot of wind and rain, but I got home around 4:30 in the afternoon, which is pretty much a world record. Â The typhoon itself passed to the south of us, so we didn’t really experience much but a lot of rain. Â No problem! Â The next typhoon should pass near the end of this week, but it is much weaker than the previous one and shouldn’t cause any issues.
On top of that, Kuniko got home from her baking lesson early, and so we could enjoy sandwiches on fresh baked bread last night. Â It was nice to have a full evening to relax together for a change…
