Return to the PI . . .
May 10, 2006
I took another one of those 25 hour travels and flew from Virginia to Manila and on to Bacolod City. I hate those long flights. They are so exhausting and worse when I do not get enough sleep which is usually the case. There wasn't much in ways of excitement this visit 
We did spend a day at Pandanon Mountain Resort in Murcia. It was a weekday so we were the only guests there. Unfortunately, less than half of my relatives were able to attend. They had several cottages for rent and cabins as well. There were plenty of trees and even a monkey chained up for display
The whole day was spent bathing in the river, eating and more bathing.
My dad, aunt and cousin played mahjong which is a game of skill, strategy, calculation and luck.
A family gathering was held on my last weekend there. You can't have a party without lechon. That would be suckling pig. It was cholesterol overload but who cares. It's a rare treat for me
My flight out of Manila was very early so I had to fly into Manila the night before and stay in a hotel. It was recommended by my parents. It was not too far from the airport and had a restaurant inside. The room was not bad. It had a kitchenette which I had no use for. I just think the bathroom could have been bleached some.
The flight back was awful for me as usual and more this time. But that's a long story. I made it home safely and that's the important part.
I can't wait for August 2008
