I spent two weeks touring the Philippines on a travel writers’ press trip back in the 70s. Absolutely loved the country, and they loved me too...printed my stuff in their official travel magazine. One of my fave photos of me has Pinatubo in the background. We did go to Cebu, and also Zamboanga, where even back then, we had bodyguards.

I don’t envy you the earthquake and aftershocks, hang in. Other than these inconveniences, I hope you are enjoying a wonderful life there.

Thank you...Yes, I, along with my Philippine wife and our 2 year old boy, are having a great time, living at a beach.
The earthquake has been only an inconvenience for those in my town. The only problem now is lack of tap water, with no idea as to when it will return. There are apparently many broken underground lines....ooops, just now another aftershock !
