Been a good and bad trip so far what with bother from kidney stone and Manila belly..... considered flying home early but lot better now.

Back in Manila after a visit to Dau and surrounding area ...... hot , dry and scary travelling the main roads in a tricycle ....... a motor bike with a side car attached to you !

I just noticed the number of fat , bald old men here strutting around with young women ... maybe we need form a club..... then i can be first ex member !!

You can pick out the locals no problem as thay all have dark eyes, smooth brown skin with just a hint of a little?black moustache ...... and thats just the females !

I have early start tomorrow as i am going to explore Puerto Galera and the beaches. Leave hotel here 6.00am for 3 hours coach trip then 2 hour boat trip.
