The Philippines April 2010
The destination was Borocay, a small island a one hour flight from Manilla. Aaron recommended it because it is a 'destination' for South Koreans. It is truly a most beautiful beach setting, however it was too touristy for me. (the video will start shortly) |

The flight was a great opportunity to see the Philippine islands. I'm sure there are great places on other islands. |
||
There were many fish farms all along the coast. | ||
After landing at a small airport I was taken to the ferry to Borocay Island. | ||
Arrived...my room was just behind me. |
||
There were few people on the beach most of the time. | ||
Great sunsets every day. | ||
I had many of my meals at this restaurant near my hotel. | ||
Back to Manilla. A large city with limited appeal. Much poverty yet the people were very friendly and it was interesting to see this large city tick. |
||
This was the street below my hotel room. It is a restaurant during the day. |
||
It is a place to sleep at night. Thousands of people sleep on the streets. |
||
Many children were also living on the steet. This small girl knew how to pull at heart strings. They were sitting outside our hotel. |
