Hello readers,
I didn't mention this earlier but we were offered a months stay at a resort to be on call to take photo's. As I said it has been an exciting month and Claude has been a fantastic host and friend. We didn't make it to Myla's parents' 50th anniversary, but we did get to see them here in the Philippines.
Well, we're packing up and heading back to Manila. We've said our farewells to Claude & Maricel and with Norman. We've said our private goodbye's to Angeles City, and Robert has made his private goodbye's as well...
We've spent the last month working for Manila Exploration Company, a treasure hunting company out of Manila. We've taken a couple of trips to look at targets, it has been a very interesting and exciting month for us! We've seen a couple of places here in the Philippines we never would have seen had we not been with MECO, nor would we have learned anything about Yamashita's gold - please google it, or better yet search for the book Gold Warrior's by Seagrave, very educational.
We're headed home on the 8th (tentatively) and I'll be opening up the blog for comments at this time.
But now for the good stuff; photo's! (oh and Happy B-Day Dad)
This is a pic of Robert (our nephew) and I looking out the back of a Jeepney after we arrived in Batangas.

The tricycle we took from Anilao to Pt. Maenit couldn't make it up the hill with all our weight so Myla had to walk (jk we all did)
This is the Point Maenit 'Hot Spring,' nothing more than a bubbling puddle 2 feet across. A tourist destination.

Myla and the folks in Valenzuela.

In this picture you can see the 9 stone bases, which made up the foundation of the house Myla was born in. We didn't have a measuring tape on us at the time but figured the house was no more than 12 feet by 12 feet, with 12 people in it at one time.
