Hello from Bagiho Philippines, 

Spent the first two days on the island down in Manila talking with business clients and then made arrangements to fly up north to Bagiho, a cool mountain town that used to be an R&R destination for the American military. The Bagiho Palace Hotel at $44 met my minimum requirements. After learning of the seaside resort community down the mountain and that a bus could get me there, I escaped to the water where I found lots of pleasant nothing and a great, dirt cheap hotel with a sea view, the Sea and Sky Hotel at $22! Mosquitoes seem to find my attractive in this part of the world. More to come from memory.

From my journal notes 7/23/2012.

Peace
