yeah well try to find valencia on google earth, it is likely briliant 'insurection' territory since they always have cloud cover (or there is some base of course and they do not intend to make the place visible)

I did like Valencia btw, great forest

I love the rain. And I hear that it's cooler in Valencia than in Cebu. Are there any pension hotels there?

You know you're in the Philippines when the President is ousted by the people for being
corrupt, jailed (in his own multi-million dollar home) conviced of graft, jailed (at home)
then pardoned by the President (who used to be his VP) and then run for President AGAIN against the President who pardoned him.

You know you're in Dumaguete when the house lights go on - and the motorbike
lights go off.

You know you're in Dumaguete when:
* A relative comes in for a short visit then unrolls his sleeping mat.
* You have to help pushing a trike because it runs out of petrol.
* You have to take a measuring tape with you because the info on the package is incorrect.
* You have to pay extra for the box containing your sweetheart's ring.
* You got to get drunk to be able to sleep at night.
* You have to send you filipina wife into the shop first or else the price is doubled.
* You got to get through 3 layers of sales girls before paying your due.
* Last time a vehicle was serviced is when it was welded together.
* You got to pay a long nose tax.
* You can pay all your taxes yet you cannot own anything.
* All electrical goods are made in China and of crappy quality.
* State of the art means 20 years old.
* Dentists still use a pedal operated drill.
* Dental fillings just wash away at the first brush.
* You want to get tanned, locals want to get white.
* Civil servants cook their meals in their office.
* You get the feeling of being milked and often is true.
