I finally got through all of the pictures of our trip and got them up on Picasa! I know you all have been waiting on baited breath, and here it is! :) I will warn you now, some of the colors are crazy. There were so many pictures and I went through them quickly.

Here is a link to the album of the entire trip - including detailed captions.

New Old Person Commercial

Hollywood Bumpits Much?

We were eating out when we saw this lady who looked like she had a HUGE bumpit. We thought it was absolutely hilarious, so we took a picture. Here it is for you to all laugh about and enjoy!

Philippines Part Deux: Boracay

So many, too many photos! I added another picasa album of all the photos from the last half of our trip so click on the title if you dare. But here are some videos...

To get to Boracay we took a small plane, a boat & a ride in this truck. It was so fun.



These guys took us sailing. They are our new best friends.



And I can say that cuz the cap'n (on the left) took us to his house and even gave us fresh boku juice and let us see his home & family & talk to his adorable dad.



Saaaaaailing (takes me away)...



It's weird cuz you think...How can this get any better? But then they played Air Supply while we were lying on the beach and it DID make it better.



And you know how mom loves to wear her curlers in public? She loves it even more on the beach.



Here's dad snorkeling.



Best shakes we've ever had.



This guy wanted us to buy ice cream and I thought he was kidding. But apparently he wasn't. But I guess snorkeling & ice cream really are a pretty natural fit.

Philippines: Part I

We love the Philippines! If you wanna see all the photos we've taken so far click on the blog title to see them all. Here are some of the highlights up to now...

Eating a lot of these



and seeing a ton of these. This transformer Jeepney might be my favorite yet.



Dad's clinic is finished! And Lisa is very happy about that.



Everything was going great in Manila til I had to get on an airplane to Palawan with these losers wearing their passports around their necks. NERDS!



But, what can I say. Listen, it's very practical & oh so convenient.



We arrived in Palawan which is about an hour flight from Manila. Palawan is one of the most natural & undeveloped islands of the Philippines. They're trying to preserve its ecology and it's really really beautiful. When we got to our hotel we knew Grandma Afro was lurking around somewhere cuz we were greeted with GUAVA JUICE. Chilito!!!



At a crocodile farm, Dad took this as a friendly welcome rather than a macabre warning.



Too bad.



Do you like to gag? Our tour guide ate a balut egg. It's a fertilized duck egg with a nearly developed embryo inside that is boiled and eaten in the shell.



We went to the Underground River which was very dark and very cool. Bats everywhere! I mean it.





We have been eating the best food in the most beautiful places.




Snorkeling in Honda Bay.

My Very Own Bus

Did I tell you that the buses and jeepnees here in Manila have a lot of religious pictures and phrases on them? While driving around one day I saw the Susan Mormon Bus!
