I'm back.....



A screwdriver for the first friday


Callao Cave



The Altar




Majestic chamber

After 23 days of work, a cancelled flight last Monday and a P1,120 excess baggage cost (20 kilos), I'm finally back in Manila. Yipee!!! I missed everyone... and everything Manila-ish.

Actually Tuguegarao isn't bad.... It's a very simple town - an Ilocano country really. Madaming bundok... Madaming palayan... Taxicles and kalesas are the means of transportation for only P8 per head. The food is cheap. I have a decent breakfast for the price of P8. My average lunch is P23 (2 viands na yun!) The best part is SALE SALE SALE!!! So most of the time, we SHOP SHOP SHOP! Famous delicacies -- the carabao milk candy, the Alcala brand (the plain milk is better than the one with peanuts) and baked peanuts (warning! it's addictive).

We were only able to visit 2 places: the Callao Caves and the historic Our Lady of Piat. Pictures? I'll try to have it here by lunchtime.

Anyway, another thing, I'll be leaving again on Oct. 1... This time, I'm headed for the South. Oh well...

I didn't see them while we're inside... but the little critters went out at around 6pm. Small bats only, not the big ones found in Subic
