Wednesday, 2 Dec 2009 | Views [1554]

So, the standard safety video is actually a live enactment on Cebu Pacific. One "lucky" flight attendant has to stand up in front of everyone and act out, with props, how to buckle a seat belt, how to wear a life vest, etc. The woman ... Read more >

A wild day & even wilder night in Sabang, Palawn, Philippines!

Sunday, 22 Nov 2009 | Views [838]

I sprang for the “luxurious” way to travel from El Nido to Sabang. An air-conditioned shuttle van. Mama Leety from the inglorious Bayview Inn made sure that if I was going to book the van, that she would do it for me. And get her cut. So into a crowded, ... Read more >

So, I got to go to a country club in the Philippines. It was NIIIICE. I dodn't chill at country clubs at home, unless its a work event. We had a 3 hour breakfast buffet with all kinds of Pinoy foods, American foods, and even Chinese food. And Barako ... Read more >
