... at what other people were doing and looked out the window. <br><br>Then we arrived back in Manila and drove to Richmond Hotel again. We were on the same floor and the first bedroom we stayed when we first arrived in the Philippines. Dad liked that room the best. We went to the Korean restaurant again and had the same thing. Then we went home I was very tired and sunburned.

... and spelunking. Island hopping. And a leisurely life by the sea. All these I can easily have whenever I step into the island's inviting shores. <br> <br> And Samal's not only an island, it's a garden and a city, too.

We had a last dinner all together at the Waterfront Insular Hotel, and then those of us traveling back to Manila went to the airport. Before leaving, the Macaraeg family gave our family a worked-metal plaque showing a water buffalo working in a rice patty, a typical scene in the Philippines. We truly appreciated, though we weren't surprised by, their thoughtfulness. There were eight of us from the conference on ...

... have opted to encamp for the night instead of proceeding to Goody-Goody. Odie and company have gone ahead. Straining as most of my muscles ached, I joined my colleagues for dinner, which was served before dusk enveloped the forest.
