Work work work....

I apologize for not being on here sooner but as you can tell by the title I have been a very busy boy. Lets see it all started very early in the month with a Trip to Cebu and Manila. The trip was over all about 11 days long. I was doing most of my work in Cebu helping some folks out up there with a major project. Then only spent the night in Manila before returning home.

I returned home to the tune of chaos, everything was breaking and/or not working properly here so I have pretty much spent everyday up until right now getting all that shit situated. Is everything 100% now? Fuck no and I do not think it every will be, just because the nature of the beast here is ALWAYS fucking changing. I apologize for being very general with my wording here but that is also the nature of the beast.

The good parts about Cebu (I got to see a few because they could not work us 24/7 even though they wanted to) was that its very cool on the upper side of the island. Its a very nice beach resort area, the water was awesome and super blue and I got to see my first sea snake. I was snorkeling at the hotel area beach and people where feeding the fish and what not when I noticed this big ass sea snake. He was just chilling there on the bottom of the ocean floor about 25 or 30 feet down just minding his own fucking business. No photos sorry I didn't have my gear with me or I would post some pics of him cause he looked really cool (like black and white camo). I however never got time to go to the casino in Cebu and I am very disappointed about that as I hear that Craps is a big game here. An already some of the other guys that did get to go won an ass ton off the craps tables so next time. So the first couple nights in Cebu we stayed at the Parkllan which was right downtown and really close to everything, which was cool. However they had this major ass construction project going on next door so we eventually moved to the other side of the island to the Shangri La resort. Which was where we spent the remainder of our days in Cebu. Google those hotels if you like because they are amazing places both of them and I would recommend either to a traveler. The Parkllan is closer to all the downtown stuff and had bigger rooms, but the Shangri La was a much nicer overall place (4 swimming pools, hot tub, golf coarse, and private beach) but was much farther away from EVERYTHING. It was an hour cab ride to downtown or pretty much anywhere. The only good side to that was that cabs are really cheap it was under 200pesos for an hour cab ride. At 47 pesos to 1 dollar you get the picture.

So anyways I am still around and wishing I was home for a freaking Halloween with my peeps, but alas I am not. I miss everyone and at the same time wish you all where here with me. This place is very poor financially but super rich in sights. I wish I had time to just travel to all the islands and see everything. You never know what you might see just flying around this place, for example I saw a school of whales while island hopping. How bad ass is that! Well folks take care and until next time be safe and I miss you!
