Mayoon Guntagg..
Ahh.. Bukidnon.. Where do I begin?
So far the mosquitoes are eating me alive so much that my gracious hosts installed a mosquito net to the bed I am sleepig in, to allow me to sleep without providing food every night to the entire local mosquito population..
We (myself and Rizza) decided to take everyone swimming at a local resort just outside of Valencia called "RR?", which is basically a mini theme park with a few pools for kids and live music. It is really a hotel resort like pontins and from what I could see of the place it would be a great place to take a family. Again, I was the only white person so everyone looked at me with a "huh!!" expression I am so used to now.. So I had a good time and spent the day trying to decipher the random words I recognize when I heard my name amidst the conversation.. All in all a good afternoon.
I have also noticed what I think is an alien concept here in Valencia. Dog Food! Rizza's grandparents have two dogs, an older dog and a puppy. The puppy seems to be my best friend now as I am the only person who actually treats it to something other than scraps I got funny looks when I tried to feed the pup a fresh slice of ham not yet tainted by flies or half eaten... Seems I was in the wrong?!?! Ahh, well.. A good insight into how food is prioritized here in the Philipinnes.
Last week in Mindanao this week, then back to Cebu by Saturday morning. I have decided that the Marriot is where I will spend my last few days in the Philippines, hot shower.. No Mosqutoes.. Good Food.. Need to re adjust before I go back to the UK or I might find myself standing in the shower with a bowl in hand... Ok.. Poor joke..
Hopefully when we get back to Cebu I an get some photo's uploaded...
So, has she captured your heart now?
Are you smitten?
Don't get too bored with rice - it will be a staple in your home when she joins you!
A tabo appeared in our bathroom yesterday even though we have a shower (don't ask me)!
Have fun there with your mahal
