On August 18 we ended our stay in Leyte. I think we were all sad about having to leave Carigara, particularly the family members and friends we had so enjoyed spending time with. We left by van in the morning, accompanied by Danny and Jerry, to travel to the second largest city on Leyte, Ormoc. From there we caught a Supercat ferry to neighboring Cebu. We were met in Cebu by Anna, the caretaker of the Coral Point Resort condominium, on Mactan Island, where we would stay for the next couple of days. The first picture is a departing shot at our house in Carigara, the rest are of Coral Point. As you can see by the photos, Coral Point is a beautiful, well-cared place. We stayed in a studio condo owned by retired Hong Kong physician, Dr. Peter Lee. Anna got us settled and then showed us Dr. Lee's impressive personal residence at Coral Point, for which she is the caretaker. We spent the remainder of our time at Coral Point relaxing and swimming in the freshwater and salt water pools. Before leaving Cebu, we did some last minute shopping for souvenirs from the Philippines, including a handmade guitar. The last picture is of our group before departing Coral Point. Shown with us are Enia's sister Luz, her son Christopher, brother Danny, cousin Jerry, Anna, Elena (Dr. Lee's maid) and our driver.
