This is my blog about our trip to the Philippines and China in the summer of 2005. I will update it periodically (when I can get to an internet cafe) while in the Phillipines, Hong Kong and Macau.

Where are we going?
This probably should have been before the others, but so be it. The Philippines is our first and main destination on the trip. As you may know, the Philippines is made up of more than 7000 islands, most of them uninhabited. We will be going to the island of Leyte in the area of the Philippines called the Visayas. It is a fairly large island in the central part of the country. Tacloban is the capital of Leyte. Our destination is Carigara, a town on the north end of the island, approximately 2 hours from Tacloban. We will be flying into Cebu, a neighboring (more populated) island and then taking the Supercat ferry to the city of Ormoc on Leyte. That takes a couple of hours. Enia's brother Antonio will be meeting us in Ormoc with a driver and van to take us to Carigara. I don't know what we would do without Antonio!
