Update

Sunday was a quiet day in anticipation of a VERY early start on Monday. Just hung around the hotel, caught up on emails and went to the gym.

Monday was our first early start. It didn't start particularly well as we were told that we would be picked up at 3 to be at work for 4. Anthony, Sheetal and I were there, ready and waiting just before 3 but the managers didn't turn up until 3:30!!! Apparently the pickup time had been changed and no-one told us! Grrrrrr!!! Could have had an extra half hour's sleep and since I didn't actually get to sleep until 1, that would have been EXTREMELY useful. To top it off our driver overslept and didn't get to us until 3:50.

We all got through the first day just fine but were pretty tired by the time we got back to the hotel. We had a celebration lunch after the shift at the Congo Grill in the SM mall across the road.

An early night was the order of the day.

Today we talked to some of the trainees at work and we have arranged the weekend of the 1st November to head down to Tagatay and to the Ta'al volcano!!!! I can't wait!!! It will be sooooo great to get out of Manila!!!!!

Here are some pics taken from the car.
