From The Philippines
I arrived in the Philippines last Tuesday morning and it’s now Friday afternoon. I didn’t get a chance to post due to a very busy schedule. It’s true what they say, time does fly when you’re having fun. The last three days have been a blur. It has been raining hard here which is good because it’s not as hot as usual. A typhoon arrived Wednesday and there hasn’t been a letdown ever since. Manila and northern Luzon took the brunt of the storm. I saw on the news that 16 people have died, and thousands have lost their homes. I’m Iloilo City in Central Philippines and we haven’t experienced the high winds that Manila has had, but it’s been raining consistently. Regarding sleep, I need it. I can harldy keep my eyes open in the late afternoons which makes sense since it’s past midnight in California. Jetlag blues. I’ve also have been waking up consistently at 3am. Go figure.

thanks for the update, we are leaving for a 2 week stay next week. any pointers?
Well, it depends on what you like to do. If you have never been to the Philippines, I suggest checking out a couple of places like Boracay, Bohol and Palawan. You can catch a one-hour flight out of Manila to arrive at these destinations. There are also many other places to see in Northern Luzon. Manila also has many tourists attractions like Intramuros, etc. If you like to shop, there are countless shopping malls in and around Manila. Hope that helps. Enjoy the trip.
