I'm here, alive and well. After a grueling trip, with cancelations and missed connections, I'm here!
The typhoon, Glenda, canceled my flight and then of course my connection, so I arrived at 2am on Thursday, July 17th. I was sleep deprived and jet lagged but warmly welcomed at the guest house of the Sagolili's. It is a delightful place to stay and they are delightful people. Here is the view from my room.
I had to make arrangements for Susie and me, since hotels in Cebu do not take dogs. I searched Air BnB and Nelson and Imelda Sagolili took a chance on us
I've enjoyed getting around so far. I've taken taxis, jeepneys and tricycles.
I had my first Thai massage today, the cost of $5.00 and one of the best massages I've had. Also had a manicure for $2.00 (85 Philippine pesos)
I report to school tomorrow. Still don't have a place to live, but I've narrowed it down and will probably make a decision tomorrow.
My biggest apprehension was the heat and humidity and I seem to be holding up okay. I take more than one shower a day, but I don't find it awful.
I'm enjoying myself so far. More to come!

ReplyDeleteI can't wait to read more! !
ReplyDeleteRelieved that you are safe and warmly welcomed. I agree that a massage is a remedy to travel bumps.
ReplyDeleteGlad you, and Susie, arrived safely, if somewhat bedraggled. Looking forward to reports of this latest adventure. You look fab in the pic!
ReplyDeleteLooking good, Linda! Refreshed at Bobs Big Boy Cebu-style?
