Day Fourteen (Sat, 7/4)

Happy July 4th--a day early if you read this soon after I post.  The Philippines were granted independence from the US on July 4, 1946, but their official Independence Day is on June 12, when they declared independence from Spain in 1898.  It's early in the day so I don't know if we'll see anything different.

Taking it easy today.  Started out at the lawyer's office in Lilo-an to get an affidavit and then to the police station to file it.  Since it's Saturday, they can't do it until Monday when the government office that handles this is open.  I tried to get a police (pulis) shirt but they weren't giving any away.

I've had a slight cold the past few days with a sore throat and stuffy nose (Fe helpfully suggested it was MERS), so it might be a good idea to rest some.

Tonight we saw Fe's sister, brother and his wife off at Mactan airport for their flight home.  They will have a 12 hour layover in Seoul like we will.

Dinner: calamari, humba (a pork dish) and rice.
