Typhoon Hato

 From 9am til 1pm – A storm like never before – Signal #10 which is like #5 to us in the Philippines. I’ve never experienced it before and never on the 27th floor of a hotel !  It was like an earthquake that never stopped and we are on the 27th floor!  Not only for a minute or a few minutes but for hours. I was so scared. I was also scared to ride the elevator to go down because it was shaking. I am used to storms but not being in a high floor haha!!!

But life went on in the @wynnpalace .  We lost electricity but they have a generator so we were all ok inside. At 4pm they lowered the signal to 8 #wynnpalacemacau #h2hmacau#typhoonhalo We are so blessed to be in a new building and one that had good facilities

 The day before we already received notice from the hotel .  They had already warned us to close our curtains and not to stay near the windows Typhoon Halo (3)When we woke up it was very quiet – it just looked gloomy. At first i was thinking whether our flight should have been really canceled but later on wow, this all changed!!! I have no photos from the window because I was scared to go near
Typhoon Halo (1) The staff were alert, the household staff were cleaning, people were eating and gambling 🙂 – we were actually safe inside the newly built hotel. Dennis a Pinoy  security guard assisted us down at around 130 pm because we wanted to eat.  There are 800 security guards all over the hotel/casino.Typhoon Halo (4)From this in the morning – the pool which we can see from our room
