we took a night flight out of Vanc. to Manilla (0430 arrival) had a few hours at the home of Pastor Jorge, in San Pablo, to 'freshen up' (shower, nap, whatever) before a night ferry ride to the island of Mindoro. pic# 306 is me with 'my girls'(ones I sponsor at AUP) waiting for the ferry / #314 is the yellow jeepney that picked us up on Mindoro. (The yellow T-shirts were our 'uniform' for the mission.)
We stopped for breaky about 0600 at an Adventist Grade School where the people fed us breakfast (#324 - enjoying our coconut milk).
Once in Ulasan some of the students 'crashed' for a few hours - #347 shows some of the girls dead asleep on the floor of their 'dorm room'.
#358 - village home in Ulasan (village where we stayed)
#610 and #447 - some VBS pictures from the small Mangyan village where our 'team' (1/3rd of the group) held our meetings (#440 shows the village)
En route back to San Pablo the 0200 Ferry was cancelled due to 'rough seas' so most of the group 'crashed' on the floor while waiting for the 0400 sailing. #644
# 331 - a typical sight of rice drying on the pavement
# 597 - is the 'bed' (table) that 2 of the ladies and I slept on just outside the girls room.
