i made it to manila last tuesday and have since had a fun-filled time in the philippines! i have been taking lots of photos and have even tried some really crazy filipino foods here (pork and chicken intestines and ox tail soup). my first impressions of the philippines were very friendly. charles family is very welcoming and friendly. everyday some one offers to take us out and show us around. my first day there charles and went to a fancy mall (where you have to pass thru security to enter) for lunch and once i saw taco bell, i absolutely could NOT pass it so it was TB for lunch and i was a very happy camper. philippines reminds me a lot of latin america mixed with asia mixed with american culture. i love it!
here are a few photos so far:
charles and i on white beach on boracay island (one of the two sunny times we got!)
the sun setting outside charles' family's house in quezon city, a suburb of manila.
white beach, boracay.
charles, me, tito boy (uncle) and cousin boom
yep, that's me eating chicken intestines! wasnt too bad really!
