Philippine Beach Trip

Got back a couple of days ago from a beach/fishing trip with my wife, daughter, dad, and uncle. Although it's rainy season here in the Philippines, we were lucky to have the sun out for most of our trip. Gained a kilo from all the fresh lobsters, crabs, fish, and shrimps I ate. Yummy! Too bad my Explorer II missed out, brought my T-Touch instead (needed some sort of weather change indicator). Anyways, here are some scenic pictures...

the first set of pictures is a private house that we rented. the second set of pictures is rumored to be the rest house of a former philippine president.

7000+ islands. didn't get to go island hopping. just went fishing and did some r&r. if any of you get a chance to visit the philippines, go to one of these places... boracay (probably the whitest and most powder sands in the planet), amanpulo, or el nido.
