A view to the water

June 7th, 2006 · 3 Comments · B's Blog

Well, here I am changing course again. No big surprise. Things haven’t been as comfortable aboard the boat as I would like, and so I think traveling solo will work best for me. The group dynamic is hard to deal with, and I think would require a really great, close group. I think I will see much more of the islands than could possibly happen with fellow travelers. My plan today is to hop aboard a ferry and head to Bantayan Island. It is small enough that I hope to travel mostly by foot and avoid the nasty air that hangs along all the highways here. The vehicles are mostly diesel or 2-stroke motorcycles, and all have clouds following them. Everyone walks with rags over their faces to help protect from it. I’m glad at this point that I decided to travel so light. Everything I brought is carried in a small backpack, and crammed really, really tight.

    Too bad you wont be taking the long sail? like you wanted to, but at least your still getting out and exploring the world…. Hope you have good travels and see lots of interesting stuff along the way.

    sorry that things aren’t going the way you had planned, but it sounds like it should still be fun exploring and seeing new things. Well, good luck.
