A: Mga ala una (1:00) ng hapon siguro kasi nung mga oras na yun ay
kakapasok lang naming sa area papunta ng Tacloban at di pa kami
nanananghalian kaya huminto kami sa Andok’s para kumain. (Probably
around one o’clock (1:00) in the afternoon because at around that time we

were in the restaurant and the line was very long.)
