Chris and Lora's Season of Pilgrimage 2008-2009 travel blog

We were glued to CNN the day before. Check out the front...

I'm sorry to say that you are looking at our dinner.

The resort!

 

 

This was a serious process.

 

You can never have too many of these shots.

The 100 steps down to the beach resort!


by Lora

We visited our family's beach resort on Samal Island for an overnight stay. Along with us from Tagum came a pig from their piggery - to serve as our dinner (sorry vegetarian friends reading this). It was the first time we were able to witness a pig roast, which was interesting. You'd think it would take longer to cook a whole pig, but it only took about 1.5 hours over the blazing fire. I have to admit - it was quite tasty.

Swimming, eating, hammock laying, reading, boating - lots of really stressful stuff going on :) We had a nice time meeting new friends, Tita Lydia and Anthea, old family friends of my aunt and uncle.

Thank you, Tita Aida, Ate Grace, Kuya Boggie, Ate Daisy, and family for a wonderful time in Mindanao. We treasure each moment spent with you!
