Have you ever encountered some unexpected really bad weather while you were on vacation?
I was in kagoshima, Japan and shizuoka, Japan when a typhoon hit. It was business as usual for the people living there. That was kind of awkward for me.
I was vacationing in the Outer Banks of North Carolina when a hurricane came through. The whole coast was evacuated, cutting our stay short!
I encountered a category 3 typhoon and floods when I was holidaying in Hong Kong last year, almost got blown away by the strong winds.
I was in Florida many years back and it poured rain like a monsoon. I've never seen rain like that in my life! And I'm from Vancouver where it rains a lot.
Great question! The only thing that I worry about is getting stopped because of blizzards. That has happened a few times, but I've only lost luggage.
