72 hours trapped in a van with ann's family

ann and dabney spent the last week driving around the island of luzon. they estimate they spent about 72 out of 120 hours in a van, stopping in every fruit and dried fish stand along the way, thanks to ann's mom. a two lane highway filled with tourist buses and sidecars made a twelve hour journey out of what should have been a four hour jaunt in the u.s. it was like driving from boston to new york on route 2, only with more livestock and crazy-ass driving. for those of you mad at them about palawan (girlladyfriend, they mean you) consider yourself redeemed. it was a tough week.

so, they are back in manila, running around, buying silkscreen supplies and such. on friday, they leave for bangkok. hopefully, they'll be able to post again before then.

Be happy you missed Tagaytay. It was long too. Mom wanted to drive two hours out of our way to see a resort her friends owned.
