Update #1: Lost my wallet Monday, I think it fell out of my pocket on a rough ride.back to our room. Checked everywhere and couldn't find it so I cancelled the cards on Tuesday and ordered a new drivers license online. Lost some money too, but it could've been worse. I'm glad I have a rich wife who can pay for everything.
Update #2: Remember when I said there'd be more on China? Well, we're not going because we need a visa for each of us at $145 apiece. We almost booked a trip to Taiwan, but there seemed to be a lot of obstacles--from a 4.5% fee for using credit to a 4 am flight from Cebu to the charge machine at the travel agent breaking down. It seemed ill-omened, so we decided to save the money for a future vacation. I'm disappointed, but we'll be doing a tour of Seoul during our 12-hour layover.
If I've learned anything on this trip it's that you have to be flexible. Today we were going to a hot spring on the north side of Cebu. After a long, winding road up in the mountains, we found a locked gate that said, "No booking, no entry". Instead we rode over to the west side of the island and visited a cold spring called Molobolo Spring. We'd've never known about this place if not for our sister-in-law, Leni.

Our final stop was JJL Beach Resort, the place we'd be staying overnight. There was no TV, wifi, or even much of a beach, but the views were spectacular and there was a great pool.
