Got into Manila late last night around 1AM. Flight was horrifically long, had a bad delay in Tokyo. Can't complain though, being I managed to make it here successfully. Met my parents at the airport last night. Today we will drive up to Baguio City, which is where they take residence. Its around 200 kilometers away from Manila. Yet it will take us 5 hours to get there. I will try and take pictures of the journey to Baguio. ALthough I can't make much of a guarantee about that, I might be busy trying to take it all in!

Some of you may know that I have been planning a trip to the Philippines for some time now. I finally have my plane ticket purchased. I'm getting so excited. I leave on Thursday! Got my camera packed and ready to go! I'm flying from home in Salt Lake City, to Portland, to Tokyo, and then to Manila. Then from Manila I will drive to Baguio City. It will be about 36 hours total travel time, dunno how to feel about that yet. I'm thinking I will be having some major jet lag. Anyway, I won't be coming home until April 3rd. So I will spend quite a bit of time over there. And the last week of March I will go with my family to Pulau something or another, Malaysia. So I don't know how much I will be around the forum for the next while. But I will be sure to post photos when I can.

hey thats awesome.

make sure to visit the rice terraces in Banaue (dad's Hometown)
