Southern Philippines

Hi. I've finally made it to the internet to post, and here is the latest. Right now I am in Cagayan de Oro, Mindanao. It's hot here but not too bad. I'm adjusting ok, and the rain cools things off everyday. Vernie and I left Manila and took a ship South on a three day journey. It was fun after we got into the smooth waters. We decided to visit her family in CDO first and then travel around later.
meeting her family was great. I was really nervous to meet them, but it went very well. They are so very nice to me, and take good care of me. It's so nice to get to know them, and also getting to know Vernie better as well. Our relationship is developing nicely.
