This weekend I have nothing to report: just a lazy weekend hanging around and recovering. But the weekend prior I hit up my local haunt for diving down in Sabong. I've been there three (two?) times before and have reported on it. Even still it never fails to surprise.
Hugo (the resident turtle) made an appearance on our night dive. Everyone instantly forgot the planned dive profile and went off chasing him into the deep. As he passed within 3 meters of me I got an amazing impression of his size; he is easily 1.5 m long and his wingspan clearly dwarfs my own. Last time we caught him sleeping on the bottom so this was a real treat.
The second surprise was waiting in our hotel room gift basket: free viagra. That should give you a decent impression of the local recreation and age demographic.
On the other hand, many things weren't all that surprising: decent weather, calm seas, good food, good company, and ridiculously cheap gin and juice.
Last week, 3 managers conspired to delay my flight home. This week it was two VPs. Next time it'll be one CEO or a partridge in a pear tree; it's a toss-up. But seriously, this time I will put my foot down... lightly. I will be flying out March 20th just in time for a wedding I haven't RSVPed to and a long-delayed game of disk golf.
Last time I flew back to the states I made a list of all the things I had missed. I fear this time the list will be longer and will only contain things that I will miss from the Philippines. Starting with this:

That gift Viagra coming in handy yet? ;)
Also, let's find a place to disc golf in SB and hit it up before we're too sloshed on champagne.
No comment on the first.
As for the second I completely agree! I'm way out of practice so a bit of wine may help more than hinder. SB has got to have a decent beach front 9 hole.
