Ferry Boat Ride Wearing Life Jacket From Cebu City, Philippines To Mactan Island

There was something unexpected going on 
while riding a ferry boat
from Cebu City to the nearby Mactan Island - 
every passenger young and old 
was wearing a life jacket!

This is the ferry boat ride from Cebu City, Philippines to the nearby Mactan Island where passengers are wearing life jackets because of the higher waves caused by Typhoon Hannah.

Typhoon Hanna (Soudelor) is already
inside the Philippine Area Of Responsibility
that's why the weather is really bad.
The city is experiencing strong winds
and the waves in the sea
are higher than normal.
Ferry travel is still permitted
but passengers are required
to wear life jackets the whole time.
First time to wear this life-saver
and it's very light
as if there's nothing on me.
But I trust this can lift
​my whole weight up
and make me float in the sea.

Typhoon Hannah (Soudelor) inside Philippine Area Of Responsibility is causing strong winds in the city of Cebu, Philippines and bad weather in general.

The super typhoon
is not making landfall
anywhere in the country
but still is causing floods
in some areas.
Fortunately,
the local government of the city
is doing this disaster-preparedness
type of thing
and it feels safe in the sea.
This is a good thing to do
in dealing with looming disasters
​or calamities.
