It's that time of year again where I plan for the worst. Living overseas on a tiny island has it's good and bad. Water sports, beautiful weather, learning new cultures are awesome but we have to prepare for typhoons, earthquakes and possible missile attacks from Korea. So every year the base has a NEO (noncombatant evacuation operation) exercise. We get to run through a scenario as if we had to evacuate the island. It's helps us to understand what to expect and what documents and supplies we my need to grab at a moment's notice. I gathered all my supplies and checked to see if I had everything my family may need for a week. I checked my documents and passports (good thing, I had to fill out new paperwork because we all had new passport numbers. I don't want to have to worry about that at the last minute or be delayed because the paperwork is wrong). So if anything happens we will at least be prepared...somewhat.
