  1. We live in Panglao, Bohol, about 30 minutes away from Tagbilaran. We didn’t see the extent of the damage until tonight when the power is restored. I had to pause typing this comment as there was just another aftershock.

    As of the last update, there were reported at least 30 casualties and more than a hundred injured in Bohol. I am not sure if this figures are official but that’s what I heard on the radio this afternoon.

    Blessings,
