After the typhoon Vongfong

This summer, we got a new dormitory in the station, and the old one was destroyed.
Then, we got nice view of the ocean from our office!

However, this also means that we lost our shield from storms, and we worried about this.

The time had come. A big typhoon Vongfong passed by last weekend.
Gift from the typhoon was a pretty salt crystal decoration on our window...

 
This tree in front of our office had a hard time since this summer.
Even after he got his branches cut, he grew young leaves.
The problem was that he also lost his shield like us.
Sadly, salty rain of the typhoon made his leaves dead.

Hope he will recover during this winter, since he used to be a house of little birds.
Then one day, he will be big enough to protect our office from storms.
