The beaches were so wonderful, as was the shopping for native handicrafts, but yes, a great time with friends was really the best part :) And you are right about the karaoke...I reallly can't be held responsible for what happens when you put a microphone in my hands!<BR/><BR/>Hi Oggi! So glad you enjoyed the Zamboanga posts :) Pako and lato are so good no? :)<BR/><BR/>Hi Marvin! Yup...and all our waistlines paid for those feasts when we got back...our collective weight gain could probably produce another human!<BR/><BR/>Hey Katrina! It's really the best! I have some Alavar sauce here that I'll share with you :) Sigh...sad truths! There were some kidnappings way back and one of the islands actually is supposd to be a small military outpost, aside fromn the fact that Basilan is pretty near and they have had encounters with Abu Sayyaf...well, I guess their Dept of Tourism just figures better safe then sorry (you can arrange for a boat with a PNP escort with the DOT). As for the singing...it was the end of the night and we were all cocktail-happy already, and since C is the one who is from there, our friends just egged him (with me along the way) on until he did it! You will not believe what we sang! ;)<BR/><BR/>Hi Kelly-jane! Thanks! :) It is a great place to visit!<BR/><BR/>Hi MM! Our hotel, Palmeras, was very nice...nice and clean rooms, good service. Lantaka (by the sea) is supposed to be one of the better ones although I have never stayed there so I can't speak from experience. Palmeras is newer though :)<BR/><BR/>Thanks Paz! I enjoyed sharing them :)<BR/><BR/>Hi Rosa! Thank you :)<BR/><BR/>Hi Valentina! The food was really yummy :) We were eating all the time!<BR/><BR/>Hi Nens! You definitely must come next year!!! :)<BR/><BR/>Hi Veron! We all had a blast :) And munched on lanzones whenever we could :) Wish I could share some with you!<BR/><BR/>Hi Katiez! I'm sure you would love it! :) Yes, there is a video but it is not getting posted here! ;)ChichaJohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14143881216169572999noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14448190.post-59512174420048839622007-10-22T03:24:00.000+08:002007-10-22T03:24:00.000+08:00I want to do that!!!!Gorgeous things at the villia...I want to do that!!!!<BR/>Gorgeous things at the villiage - love all the photos!

Seeing all those pictures, and then now reading your account of the trip, you can bet I'll be one of those making your group bigger next year! :) I've never been to Zambo and I can't think of a better group to experience it with for my first time.

Cruz require a military escort, is it NPA or Abu Sayyaf territory? That's so sad that all that natural beauty is marred by man-made problems. :-(<BR/><BR/>So why did the band (and your friends) clamor for C and you, in particular, to sing? Has your reputation preceded you all the way there? ;-) And what did you sing???Katrinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18103275969563306124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14448190.post-70915468807185913782007-10-20T00:04:00.000+08:002007-10-20T00:04:00.000+08:00What a feast you had Joey!
