Sunny Typhoon Weekend


Pablo got here on Thursday morning...very early Thursday morning. Not that it mattered to him. After 36+ hours of multiple plane rides, layovers, airports, and time zones he didn't have a clue as to what time it really was anyway.

We had planned to go to Hong Kong Friday evening but mother nature and the Sponsor had other plans. Since yet another typhoon was headed for Manila we had the choice to either get out on Friday morning or stay in Cebu. There were no flights out of Cebu that early so we hunkered down for what turned out to be a sunny and wonderful weekend. We expected nothing more than a few rain showers but we didn't even get that.

Our weekend in Cebu was great. We spent loads of time enjoying our beautiful beach on Friday and Saturady. Then on Sunday we took in the sights of the island with Cloris and her friend in town from China.

We've ate, drank and had a very merry weekend. It is always so great to have our friends with us to share experiences.

We were of course a little disappointed with having to cancel Hong Kong, but, not to fear we've rescheduled for this weekend!

down time

we've decided to stay put this weekend. since we just got back monday evening it seemed silly to pack back up 3 days later just to go lay on another beach or at another pool in bohol. we still plan on going back to see the sights there and again, with being in cebu we don't really have a ton of other options.

my goal for the weekend, other than enjoying some qt with just the Wife, is to work on these funky tan lines i have going on.

at first i thought it was remnants of the sunburn bib i gave myself in peru. but now i'm fairly certain that at some point a very wide strap was laid across my right shoulder and chest without my knowledge. from the color difference i'm going to guess it was there for at least two hours.

wth? where did this weird line come from?? i'm going to look like a patchwork quilt by the time we get home for christmas.
