one of the first funny memmories of the philippines was of my wife to be fanning me in a van keeping me cool with a manual fan (a piece of cardboard) .i thought she may just be having a joke at first.but she was just looking after me. on her birthday i sent her a card with a fan on to remember the time.
we also remember the first night we shared a bed together in the hotel that night and the huge gap between us in the middle of the bed !she was a bit scared of me.
the second visit also has some funny moments . we shared our first apartment together and i sampled the ordinary life with her. it had no telly , no bed, no fan and just a single gas cooker that i set alight (very embarresing)
we had to fetch the water we used and the toilet was a manual flush and shower.
i thought at first ,why oh why did i not insist on a hotel !
but after only a couple of days we both agreed that we loved our first apartment we shared together.
i also remember the first time i saw my wife to be eating rice with her bare hand and she laughed to see the look on my face.
she said this is the way i usualy eat my rice now we are not in a restuarant.
