Pt 15 – Phil-osophy
Manilla and Puerto Gallera – 15-19/4/2012
How did I not think to come to the Philippines before?! It’s 7000+ islands = unfathomable miles of tropical coastline of sparkling beaches and limestone cliffs with jungle spilling over to crystal waters teaming with pristine reefs; the beautiful people are defined by their unique mix of South-East Asian friendliness and Spanish fiesta spirit; it’s ...
Sun, sea, sand and ..................spiders!!
... next day, realising
we had been slacking on walking practise we decided to do the five
miles to Puerto Galera town. We hadn't factored in the 34C heat and

Puerto Galera
... 8217;s funny how walking around half-naked all day makes you think about how you look *cough*, I mean you’re health. There was a great hill which separated White Beach from Aninuan beach so we ran that each morning and went passed a little bakery for breakfast.
