Well, after a great 10 days in Australia, we are finally here in the Phillipines. I've been here for about 30 minutes anyway (and people say I'm addicted to email/the net?!) ...!
Just wanted to share some fotos - internet is scarce here so I thought I'd pop them up while the going is good.
So, just to give you a bit more context, I'm here for a "study trip". Over the next 10ish days, we're meeting with lots of important people and hanging out at cool spots to learn more about culture, business, and stuff.
So, here's the Manila city harbour as you come in ... pretty advanced, huh?

Upon closer inspection, there is a mix of the old, the new ... and the religious - a nice white cathedral it looks like. Phillipines is something like 90% Catholic.

And here's the view from our hotel room! Manila skyline by evening ...

I'm psyched for a great trip.
Blessings

Hey john,
Good to hear that you got there in one piece. The harbour does look good. What about the city though? Is it just as nice a view?
Miss ya already! We went to Big John's the other night and had a ridiculously BIG meal... even for the boys! Will definitely have to take you there!
Have fun in the Phillipines!
Hey John,
Great to see you in church.
Make the best of your time in Stanford. Please send my regards to Jeff and Wendy. Tell them not to work too hard.
Keep blogging!
Jacqui,
Is this Big Johns @ 101 Rocky Pt Rd, San Souci? The steaks are great aren't they? Especially the seafood platter.
Cheers all.
