Well, this blog is long overdue.
Our last blog was posted before we went on our journey to the Philippines and China. What can I say? It was exciting, tiring, hot and humid, cold and windy; those are a few terms to describe our trip. But I wouldn't take it back for anything.
The main reason we went on this trip was to revisit the homeland of our sister-in-law. The second reason was to experience a one of a kind celebration-SINULOG-and experience it we did. I cannot describe the crowds, the noise, the colour, the devotion, the friendliness of this experience.

I hope you have enjoyed these little bits of the Philippines. I have more but I'm still trying to resize them so that they are easy for you to click on and see them in a larger view. I''ll get more out tomorrow, I promise.I started this blog before we left Lo de Marcos and today is March 26 and we are in Ehrenberg, AZ, enjoying a few days here before moving on to Pahrump for a few more days.
