Jet setting...

Thanks to Korea's generosity in giving me an extra 2 weeks paid vacation in February for re-signing my contract, I'll be jet setting with Aaron over to Boracay Island in the Philippines for the last 14 days of February.  Not great on the wallet, but great on the body!  We all need a little relaxation, don't we?!

I was excited when we booked our flights, but didn't get pretty butterflies in my stomach until Aaron found THIS PLACE!  My initial reaction was NO WAY!  A place on the water in Boracay would be a fortune! Since Boracay Island is home to one of the worlds top 5 beaches, most resort hotels are OUTRAGEOUSLY expensive and even the hostels aren't exactly South East Asian prices like we're used to paying.  BUT, this place is only $56 a night (still about 2 - 3x's more than most places we've been), but I can dive into the ocean from my own room for heavens sake!

February 16th just can't get here fast enough!
*** As a side note, I'm coming home to America NEXT WEEK!  Hallelujah!
