PREGNANCY


"Hon, this is awful bad suffering. Knowing that worse is to come. Ur sweet body will be distressed and distorted. Then the birth will be the worst pain. Shocking!"

"Ya!
But we have this baby bcoz it serves as the certificate of our love. I could antagonize these sufferings hon, but please promise me that u are always there."

TRAIN



The small town of Lara
is connected
to
the city of Melbourne,
(population 3.6 million), by an expressway and a high speed rail link.

The freeway suffers from congestion over the 10 km long West Gate Bridge, which carries traffic over the estuary of the Yarra River.

The railway has been upgraded, and new diesel cars travel at 160 kph (100 mph) over the faster sections.
These blurry pictures were taken this morning on the Warrnambool express into Melbourne.

Today, Ai travelled by bus to Tacloban.

But it was a difficult day. The compulsive sickness returned.
Needing to throw up every few minutes. but an empty or dry feeling.

So in Tacloban, I asked to meet her on Yahoo Messenger.
This allows us time to exchange ideas without the high cost of
the phone. It also enables an exchange of webcam pictures.
- Ai does not have a camera, and in santa Rita,
she does not have access to the internet.



Feeling unwell, Ai sked not to do the webcam.
But I persuaded her to meet.
She appeared looking very good, her face and lips just a little fuller.
We sat online almost two hours.
For two people who have had only a few days together,
it was satisfying to have this webcam link, however fragile.
