Tuesday, February 18, 2014. Scenes of Eastern Samar after Yolanda. A dilapidated house seems what remains of one of the coastal barangay of Hernani, Eastern Samar. Rubles, rubles are all there are in a barangay in Hernani, Estern Samar. This was what the people of Salcedo were saying weeks following the super typhoon Yolanda. This is what remained of the heritage Church of Guiuan, Eastern Samar. Bishop Crispin Varquez inspects, or mourns, of what remained of the rectory of Guiuan. View my complete profile.
