Visa Run in Six Months
Time for me to start planning for my exit from the Philippines. Visitors can stay for 16 months but then most leave the country for three days. Help me plan my next visa run!
Bantayan Island Revisited
Just Back From Bantayan Island
I spend the last three days on Bantayan Island! Just a short note for now. Jessie and I took over 350 pictures. Don’t know how many of Jessie’s pictures will be usable. She got some great shots but some of the more difficult photographic opportunities may have lighting issues. She’s learning fast though, no surprise, Jessie the only person I know that is almost as smart as me. 
I’m pretty exhausted as we visited the town this time, got very hot and that’s going to take a lot out of me. Jessie took a Filipina friend along this time. Her name is Jean. Even Jean had trouble with the heat.

Cebu City, Pension House Review
Palladium Suites
On our visit earlier this month to Cebu City we stayed with walking distance of Osmena Circle and the price was less than P1000 for two people.
We stayed at Palladium Suites. The room was quite small but clean, the service was good and timely we even checked in about four hours early without any kind of problem. During the night, someone did ask us what time we would checkout which was a strange request. Seemingly trying to rush us? Jessie told her before 1pm which was checkout time. Later I told Jessie that she didn’t help that girl out very much. Which was okay with me, the girl on the night shift should have never asked that. I had thought about staying a second night but since we spent so much already, I decided that wouldn’t be a good idea anyway and we headed out as we originally planned. Staying only one night.
Meandering In The Philippines
Which Ever Way The Monsoon Blows in Cebu
Thought I’d post some pictures I’ve taken in the last week during my walks. Not walking to any place in particular, just walking here or there. Trying to loose some weight and meeting the Filipino. Expats and tourist, get out of your cars and off your motors and walk. Your missing the Philippines if you drive every where you go. I miss far more of the Philippines even doing walking. Until I’m in their homes, experiencing their life they way the do, I’m missing much.

Bogo City Rules
I’ve been a bit frustrated lately as I’ve not had much to say. i know, it’s not like me, I usually excel at talking about myself. LOL
I’ve been walking. Maybe not as much as I once did but I try hard not to let two days pass where I don’t walk. in other words, i try to walk at least every other day. I didn’t walk today but I did yesterday. And boy my legs hurt.
I’ve had muscle pain for years and I’ve taken a muscle relaxer for years. It is not available here and I’ve
Super Shuttle Ferry Starts Service in Bogo City
Yesterday evening while on my walk, Jessie noticed a huge banner announcing SuperFerry routes leaving Bogo City Port. I will post more information soon.
