    I read recently that Philippines has climbed to the dizzy heights (or more correctly lows) of 21 out 22 Asian countries for internet speed.

    You have to experience it to believe it. Roll on the end of my PLDT contract.

    there was no such thing as WiFi when i went,nor a tourist entrance fee either,times are a changing.



    Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
    The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.

    Never liked the idea of "Glamping" very overpriced, poncy & pretentious. The places they show on Four in a Bed are run by complete a-holes

    How would us Filipinas who are too far away from our family and friends in the Philippines would see and connect to each other? It's the easiest way I know! Seeing their photos and videos posted there make me see how the family events or vacations have turned out. Just because something doesn't conform to your standards, you can't remove the fact that it's been a great help to others. It's how you use it.

    Without Facebook, I wouldn't have met Keith. He would probably still be an old miserable git if he hasn't met me in Facebook!

    I was interested in going to Sumilon until I realised it was a private island. Nearest I got to it was on Ocean Jet on the way to Tagbilaran.

    Sumilon Island sounds a nice place.
    At P10k/P12k per night it's very pricey IMO

    Pearl Farm Beach Resort is very near for us and with great accommodation and activity for around P6k/P8k per night.

    Quite a few smaller beach resorts will let you pitch up a tent for a very small charge. That's the opposite to glamping

    It is expensive but you should see the rates for their normal rooms - Php 15k - 50k per night! But they don't want kuripot riff-raff like thee and me, Peter, this place is for the rich crowd from Eastwood and other highly select areas.
