Mother Nature Disaster

On Thursday evening at Alan's birthday dinner, news reporters anounced and alerted us to be careful with this coming typhoon. The name of typhoon is Morakot. Nobody expected that this typhoon would be strong.

On the way home, it started raining with little wind. We all said that tomorrow we had to go to work. Later in the evening, news reporter anounced that we will have typhoon vacation tomorrow. I was so tired in the evening, I went to sleep right away. Alan told me, "Mom, you can take a big rest tomorrow, you do not have to go to school." I heard him saying that, I was so happy but at the same time, I was so tired.

In the midnight, the wind and the rain were getting were stronger and stronger.
