36 hours, 5 airports and even more security checks

There was a lot of reading and sleeping involved, and more security checks than I could imageine.

I'm sure Cady will inform you of our trek to the MARTA station. San Francisco was a little crazy, I had to go through security twice so I could post some mail. Our 5 hour lay over in Vancouver was actually really nice (good katsu-don and the nicest, cleanest airport ever) plus the airport was practically empty. 13.5 hours over the Pacific ocean was mostly sleep with a glimpse of the sun over the north pole and seeing what I am pretty sure was Tokyo.

Then there was Manila...we had no cash (yes that was stupid), but what was the chance of all the ATMs(both of them) being empty or out of order? Plus they have a "Terminal fee" to get to the gate. Luckily a really nice guy gave us 500PHP for the 200 PHP fee each. He was on our flight, but Iloilo had no ATM's.

Anna made a nice sign for us (no that we could have missed her). And here we are at 11 in the morning in an internet Cafe typing away. We'll get some pictures on the Jeepneys later.
