Back in the Philippines


It was a looooong journey, our flight back to the Philippines. After all, we were about some 50++ hours without sleep. That's from getting up on wednesday morning German time, flying to Manila in the late evening that day untill our final arrival in Bohol on Friday morning, philippine time. And even there, we had to stay up the whole day untill we could finaly fall asleep on Friday evening.
Now it's almost 2 weeks since we arrived and this time was used to do some repair on the house. We still have problems with the old steel roof, which is leaking on some places and it seems to be more and more difficult to find a good carpenter in the area here.
Last weekend until yesterday an old (rebuilt) spanish Galeone, the "Galeon Andalucia, was here in Bohol for display. It was built for the EXPO in China and is now on tour trough South East Asia. I didn't manage to get on the ship itself, because there were just too many people waiting. I managed however, to take some pictures from outside. See above.
