Well guys I am back.
It was a wonderful holiday, hot & sunny and 32c in her parents house with no air con! But we had a wonderful time and with her dear family who are so kind and supportive.
We weer careful where we went as CDO is not safe as the other cities away from Mindano but we went to malls and hotels to swim and ate out rode jeepneys and enjoyed most precious moments.
The journey of 18 hours flying was hard work even more so as my 2 hour connecting flight was a 10 min run from arrival and dept gate! with no time to stretch my legs .. talk about stress!

I feel a bit bombed out today but getting better.

I appreciate all your help guys here on this forum. Many thanks with sincere heart.

John
