Greetings from the Philippines

I've been in the Philippines since Sunday night. Almost didn't make it. Long story that I am sure I'll get to eventually. Anyway, haven't seen much of the sights, since the hotel seems to be in the middle of nowhere and getting to and from the office (and anywhere else) also takes a while. I'll talk a bit more about it later, but the main thing I have to say is that Singapore and the Philippines are so very different. Except for the fresh fruit at just about every meal. I've probably had more fresh pineapple in the last 8 days than I had in the rest of my life.
