On Wednesday, we finally got moving: After some initial baggage problems (they made us repack 4 times and then we still had to pay $60 because Willierose brought 30 kg of chocolate as souvenirs for her relatives) and a totally packed flight we arrived safely in noisy, lively Manila at about 11.30pm. Willierose's aunt and cousin picked us up and drove us to their nice home in the burbs, where they gave us a whole condo to live in! Very nice indeed. The next day, there was the coup that you might have heard about. A senator and a general tried to oust the President, which ended in both of them and all supporters being thrown in jail and business as usual the next day.
Been eating lots of tropical fruit (mangoes and coconuts! as well as papayas, mangosteen, lanzones, etc.), delicious Filipino food and all of that pretty much non-stop. I hope that I won't come out of here 20 kg heavier. Love,
Willierose&Guido
