Saigon Beach Resort Boracay

... to see if there's more pubs along the way than our usual haunt! Just sat down and watched the sunset here for the first time too. We've always seemed to miss it so far. Very beautiful. Off to Oz on the 18th. Feels so weird to be leaving Asia!!! Still have quite a few more lazy days to go here though. Will update with more news when it happens.

Love to all!!

... chat. The owner is married to an English woman so he was all stories about how they met.

Out in the beach bars later, we met two more people who we had been chatting to at the Halloween party in Hong Kong! Small world or what.

Covered in Mosquito bites, have counted nearly forty on my legs alone. Not so pretty!

Miss you all,
Stories?

Really when you enjoyed the place too much you cant even think of returning home,,work and so on that's what i felt,,life is that simple in that place people are happy even they dont have everything..I still feel the sadness when i left the island,yahh that's a part of reality..
The good thing is that we can always come back and maybe next time it will be for good huh...

... the waterspouts several kilometers away. That night we got mild rain, as we often did during our last four days on Boracay, but one day when we went out for lunch we got caught in one of the heaviest rains that I have ever seen. The rain had been so light every other time it rained that we didn't bother bring our umbrella with us and we got completely soaked. It only took around 15 seconds in this type of weather to get soaked to a point that you may as ...

... back, dinner last night was the first time he'd left his room, poor guy is pretty shaken up. Joel went to the doctor for food poisoning and is on a bunch of pills, still dosn't feel good. All Matias can talk about is that girl (guy) from Boracay, he's really smitten which is gross. Me and Graham are really the only two that got out unscathed. It was such an amazing time, we had a blast. So many stories and so much fun! Can't wait for the next adventure. Thanks for reading, Jake

... of calamari, and Gatorade. It is really wierd to sit in these open air eating places, surrounded by palm trees and sand, and then have CNN on the TV. The inflence of the USA around the world is phenomenal. Julius has never left the Philippines and has no desire to. He's happy here. In one of the airports on the way here, we really felt in the minority, probably LA to Hong Kong. Everyone is very friendly to us, but we ...

... in Mandarin Chinese a bit! We then went for a late pizza lunch at Aria's at the north end of the island. It was delicious and Eli introduced me to dipping my pizza in balsamic vinegar! AMAZING!!!! I'll do it from now on! Afterwards, Meghan & I were very tired. The heat is SO DRAINING, so we walked back to Orchid's. My sunburn on my back from Apo is peeling and I look like a snake. So attractive, I know. The scabs from my poison ...

... how I survived the experience last year... Once again, this gypsy has been challenged by the spirits to head out of the urban jungle and escape from the rancid mundanity of Manila life. And a welcome challenge it is, indeed. Without any indication of hesitation, I fervently un-strapped my gorgeous black, ostrich leather stilettos; unmasked my face of urban vanity goo/corporate war paint, packed ...

... arrived in Hong Kong around 9AM and caught an $80 cab ride to where Jenna, Justin, Julianne and Eileen were staying. Dan was out of money and mine was quite limited, so this cab ride hurt our wallets greatly. Nobody knew Dan was coming along, so I went into the room first and 5 minutes later he knocked on the door, giving everyone a GREAT surprise!! He and I were dog tired, but everyone wanted to go out and get food, so we followed along anyway. We had expensive pizza and ...
