Just got back from the Philippines last friday, was one of the funnest times I've been back! Was a best man at my cousin's wedding, went wakeboarding a couple of times, and got spend most of my time in the countryside really. Its hotter than you can imagine there right now. Here are some sketches of things I saw on the trip, I'll post some pics a little later!




From the Seattle and Taipei Airport, where I had an 8 hour stopover!

You'll see these kind of tricycles everywhere, I wanna bring back one to the states, imagine the commute in that badboy!

This massive mansion was just recently built in our meager barangay(
barrio, neighborhood) for some reason.

Neighbors taking a shower outdoors by the water pump across the street. I didnt get to try it because I'd be unconfortable, but it always looked completely refreshing.

The newest little one in our family, Therese!

My little cousins playing ( and takin a bath) in the waterhose.

Next door neighbor from the Nadal family.

Hostesses of Wowowee, a super popular tv show there.

From a drag queen cotillion.

From a city-wide parade and festival.

Some pros from a newly built, local Watersports complex rockin out. I didn't come close to looking like any of this, but it was a freaking blast.
I'll post up some pics soon!
